Let $\"+x+\"$ = the amount that store B made
\n" ); document.write( "Store A made $\"+x+%2B+275000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+%2B+%28+x+%2B+275000+%29+=+625000000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+2x+=+625000000+-+275000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+2x+=+624725000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+312362500+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+%2B+275000+=+312637500+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Store B made $312,362,500
\n" ); document.write( "Store A made $312,637,500
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+312362500+%2B+312637500+=+625000000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"625000000+=+625000000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "OK \n" ); document.write( "
