That equation is correct!! Good job!
\n" ); document.write( "This is what you have: \"1%2F10+%2B+1%2F14+=+1%2Ft\"
\n" ); document.write( "7t + 5t = 70 -------- Multiplying by CD, 70t
\n" ); document.write( "12t = 70
\n" ); document.write( "t, or time = \"70%2F12\", or \"highlight_green%285%265%2F6%29\" days \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
