J+P=90; (J+16)-(P-16)=14
\n" ); document.write( "Solve:
\n" ); document.write( "J+16-P+16=14
\n" ); document.write( "J-P=14-32
\n" ); document.write( "P=J+18
\n" ); document.write( "P=(90-P)+18
\n" ); document.write( "P+P=90+18
\n" ); document.write( "2P=108
\n" ); document.write( "P=108/2=54
\n" ); document.write( "Peter = $54
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "36+54=90
\n" ); document.write( "36+16=52; 54-16=38, so 52-38=14
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
