\n" ); document.write( "Then amount she can spend on each cat's food and medicine = \"%281%2F2%29D\", or \"D%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "From this we get: \"164%28D%2F2%29+%2B+24D+=+4240\"
\n" ); document.write( "She can spend $\"highlight_green%28highlight_green%2840%29%29%29\" on each dog's food and medicine.
