\n" ); document.write( "John spends 0.15x + 0.2x + 0.5x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John saves x - (0.15x + 0.2x + 0.5x).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The equation is\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x - (0.15x + 0.2x + 0.5x) = 1245.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Simplify and solve it:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x - 0.85x = 1245,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.15x = 1245,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"1245%2F0.15\"$ = 8300.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
