\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "fat + fat = fat
\n" ); document.write( "0.19x + 0.12*15 = 0.14(x+15)
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "19x + 12*15 = 14x + 14*15
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 2*15
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6 gallons (amt. of 19% milk needed)
