\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The article cost N400.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Woman = 10%
\n" ); document.write( "Man = 40%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Altogether, they have 10% + 40% = 50%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "50% of N400 = 50100 * N400
\n" ); document.write( " = N200\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, they had N200.\r
