If 3 bulldozers can load 5 trucks full of earth in 30 minutes,
\n" ); document.write( "Find how many bulldozer minutes per truck
\n" ); document.write( "3 * 30 = 5
\n" ); document.write( "90/5 = 18 bulldozer minutes per truck
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "then how long should it take 5 bulldozers to load 7 trucks full of earth?
\n" ); document.write( "let m = no. minutes to accomplish this
\n" ); document.write( "5m = 7*18
\n" ); document.write( "5m = 126
\n" ); document.write( "m = 126/5
\n" ); document.write( "m = 25.2 minutes for 5 dozers to load 7 trucks\r
