\r\n" );
document.write( "Let the price of 1 goat be rs x.\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the price of 1 sheep is 2x rs.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "the average price of 12 goats and 12 sheeps is rs 600\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So  12x + 12(2x) = 600\r\n" );
document.write( "       12x + 24x = 600\r\n" );
document.write( "             36x = 600\r\n" );
document.write( "               x = \"600%2F36\"\r\n" );
document.write( "               x = \"50%2F3\" rs  \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the average price of a goat is \"50%2F3\" rs\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "And the average price of a sheep is 2 times \"50%2F3\" rs. which\r\n" );
document.write( "is \"100%2F3\" rs.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore 3 goats sell for 3 times \"50%2F3\" or 50 rs\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore 2 sheep sell for 2 times \"100%2F3\" or \"200%2F3\" rs.\r\n" );

document.write( "\"50%2B200%2F3=150%2F3%2B200%2F3=350%2F3=116%262%2F3\" rs.\r\n" );
