Convert \"+100+\" mi to inches
\n" ); document.write( "The conversion in terms of units is:
\n" ); document.write( "( 100 mi ) x ( 5280 ft/mi ) x ( 12 in/ft ) = inches
\n" ); document.write( "\"+100%2A5280%2A12+=+6336000+\" inches
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "and in terms of units:
\n" ); document.write( "( 1/6 gal/in ) x ( 6336000 in ) = gallons
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%281%2F6%29%2A6336000+=+1056000+\"
\n" ); document.write( "It burns 1,056,000 gallons of fuel in 100 miles
