You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"+5%2F8+\"$ pounds / dollars
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+9+%2F+d+\"$ pounds / dollars
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5%2F8+=+9%2Fd+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"+8d+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5d+=+72+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+d+=+14.4+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Now you can say:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5%2F8+=+11%2Fd+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5d+=+88+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+d+=+17.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "This should work also:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+9%2F14.4+=+11%2Fd+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"+14.4d+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+9d+=+158.4+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+d+=+17.6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "OK \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
