a number when multiplied by 5 exceeds itself by 32.
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Interpret that this way:\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "When you multiply this number by 5 you get another number which is this number
\n" ); document.write( "plus 32.
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Then say it this way:\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "This number multiplied by 5 equals this number plus 32.
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Then call this number \"x\"\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "x multiplied by 5 equals x plus 32.
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Then you have\r\n" );
document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "5x = x+32
\n" ); document.write( "
