\n" ); document.write( "There are \"1200\" students at Jones High School. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"10\" percent=\"10%2F100=0.1\" of them is \"1200+%2A0.1=120\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, \"120\" students did not read any novels last semester \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "now, to find out how many read at least one novel last semester, subtract \"120\" from \"1200\":\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1200-120=1080\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, \"1080\" students read at least one novel last semester
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
