.3R = .75S
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply each side by 1\"1%2F3\", in order to isolate S as a whole.
\n" ); document.write( ".4R = S
\n" ); document.write( "R + S = 220
\n" ); document.write( "Now substitute the known value of S from the equation above into the bottom equation.
\n" ); document.write( "R + S = 220
\n" ); document.write( "R + (.4R) = 220
\n" ); document.write( "1.4R = 220
\n" ); document.write( "Divide each side by 1.4
\n" ); document.write( "R = 157.14 Rs
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, S = 62.86 Rs
\n" ); document.write( "That came out strange numbers, but they add to 220 and fulfill the requirements above.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
