One-Ton truck:
\n" ); document.write( "1 ton is 2000 pounds.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You need to fix your question, but what you want is understandable.
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2810%2Agal%2B16%2Apounds%29=2000%2Apounds\"
\n" ); document.write( "You need to change the gallons into pounds; and you are interested in x, the number of cans to put onto the truck.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%2810%29%2862%261%2F2%29%2F%287%261%2F8%29%29%2APOUNDS\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "87.7193 pounds or about \"%2887%2623%2F32%29%2Apounds\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Remake the earlier equation as \"x%2887.7193%2B16%29=2000\";
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%28103.7193%29=2000\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=2000%2F103.7193\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=19.28\"
\n" ); document.write( "To make practical sense, \"highlight%28x=19%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
