R=W+37
\n" ); document.write( "R+W=265
\n" ); document.write( "(W+37)+W=265
\n" ); document.write( "2W=265-37
\n" ); document.write( "2W=228
\n" ); document.write( "W=228/2
\n" ); document.write( "W=114 WHITE MARBLES.
\n" ); document.write( "R=114+37=151 RED MARBLES.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "114+151=265
\n" ); document.write( "265=265
