larger integer is x
\n" ); document.write( "smaller is 88-x
\n" ); document.write( "x/88-x =5 remainder 10/88-x
\n" ); document.write( "(x/88-x)=5+(10/88-x)
\n" ); document.write( "common denominator of 88-x
\n" ); document.write( "(x/88-x)=(440-5x+10)/88-x
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, x= -5x+450, since the denominators are equal.
\n" ); document.write( "6x=450
\n" ); document.write( "x=75
\n" ); document.write( "The larger integer is 75
\n" ); document.write( "The smaller is 13
\n" ); document.write( "They add to 88,
\n" ); document.write( "Their quotient is 5 remainder 10
\n" ); document.write( "The remainder is another way of showing a fraction, whose numerator is the remainder, the denominator the divisor.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
