\n" ); document.write( "let number be \"x\"
\n" ); document.write( "nine more than a number:\"x%2B9\"
\n" ); document.write( "is the same as:=
\n" ); document.write( " a quarter of the number, subtracted from twenty-four:\"24-x%2F4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B9=24-x%2F4\" ...solve for \"x\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \"x%2Bx%2F4=24-9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \"5x%2F4=15\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"5x=15%2A4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=%28cross%2815%293%2A4%29%2Fcross%285%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=3%2A4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=12\"\r
