You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let \"+L+\" = the length of the bridge in km
\n" ); document.write( "\"+L%2F.1+\" = the number of times the train would fit
\n" ); document.write( "into the bridge
\n" ); document.write( "\"+L%2F.1+%2B+2+\" = the number of times the entire train
\n" ); document.write( "fits in order to \"pass through\"
\n" ); document.write( "( note that I need the \"+2+\" to account for both
\n" ); document.write( "head and tail to get in and also to get out )
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28%28+L%2F.1+%2B+2+%29%2A.1+%29+%2F+54+=+20+%2F+3600+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"++L+%2B+.2+=+54%2A%28+1%2F180+%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+L+=+.3+-+.2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+L+=+.1+\" km
\n" ); document.write( "The bridge is 100 m long
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "The train travels 3 of it's lengths or .3 km
\n" ); document.write( "to pass through
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.3+%2F+54+=+.1%2F18+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+1%2F180+%29%2A3600+=+20+\" sec
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Hope I got it, and hope it's
