\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "5:3 is the same as 5x:3x
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 3x = 80
\n" ); document.write( "8x = 80
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Dimensions are 5x = 50 and 3x = 30
