\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "In words:
\n" ); document.write( "( allowed ounces of nuggets ) / ( ounces / nugget ) = number of nuggets allowed
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3.5+%2F+.7+=+5+\"
\n" ); document.write( "Nadia can eat 5 nuggets
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "This is 1/3 of the 15 nuggets in the package since
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%281%2F3%29%2A%28+15+%29+=+5+\"
\n" ); document.write( "The package weighs 10.5 ounces
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%281%2F3%29%2A10.5+=+3.5+\" ounces
\n" ); document.write( "OK
