A bucket has 56 liters of water in it when it is 4/5 full. How much can it hold?
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"x\" be the amount the bucket can hold.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "(4/5)x = 56
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by 5/4 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x = (5/4)56
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5*(56/4) = 5*14 = 70 liters
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
