220+X=2/3(510-X)
\n" ); document.write( "220+X=340-2X/3
\n" ); document.write( "X+2X/3=340-220
\n" ); document.write( "5X/3=120
\n" ); document.write( "5X=360
\n" ); document.write( "X=360/5
\n" ); document.write( "X=72 NUMBER OF BARRELS TRANSFERED FROM SHED 2 TO SHED 1.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "220+72=2/3(510-72)
\n" ); document.write( "292=2/3*438
