Treat this problem as if it had an equal sign. You need to get the y's by themselves, so you should simplify the right side first\r

\n" ); document.write( "\"12y-12%3C11y-13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the subtract 11y from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"12y-11y-12%3Ccross%2811y%29-cross%2811y%29-13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"y-12%3C-13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then add 12 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2Bcross%28-12%29%2Bcross%2812%29%3C-13%2B12\"\r
