\n" ); document.write( "\"f\"= age of the father/husband at the time of the marriage.
\n" ); document.write( "\"m\"= age of the mother/wife at the time of the marriage.
\n" ); document.write( "\"s\"= age of the son at the time of the marriage.
\n" ); document.write( "\"d\"= age of the daughter-in-law at the time of the marriage.
\n" ); document.write( "At the time of the marriage, the average age of a family comprising father/husband, mother/wife and their son was 42, so
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%2Bm%2Bs%29%2F3=42\"<--->\"f%2Bm%2Bs=42%2A3\"<--->\"f%2Bm%2Bs=126\" .
\n" ); document.write( "After 1 year the newlyweds had a child,
\n" ); document.write( "and 5 years after that, meaning \"1%2B5=6\" years after the marriage,
