The larger of two numbers is 9 more than the smaller. Their sum is 95.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
If we called the smaller number n, then the larger would be n+9
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
larger + smaller = 95

\n" ); document.write( "\"%28n%2B9%29%2Bn=95\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n%2B9=95\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n%2B9-9=95-9\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n=86\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2n%2F2=86%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"n=43\"
\n" ); document.write( "The smaller number is n=\"highlight%2843%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "The larger number is n+9 or 43+9=\"highlight%2852%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "****************************************************
\n" ); document.write( "Sanity check...do the two numbers really add to 95?
\n" ); document.write( "43+52 does equal 95, so we are not completely crazy :)\r
