\n" ); document.write( "B = 5P
\n" ); document.write( "B - P = 360
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute the known value of P from the first equation into the second.
\n" ); document.write( "B - P = 360
\n" ); document.write( "(5P) - P = 360
\n" ); document.write( "4P = 360
\n" ); document.write( "Divide each side by 4
\n" ); document.write( "P = 90
\n" ); document.write( "If Pete sells 90, then Bill sells 450 (five times as many). 450-90=360
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
