You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let \"+x+\" = the price of the meal BEFORE the tip was added
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.2x+=+7.5+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+7.5%2F.2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+37.5+\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "The cost of the meal AFTER the tip is added is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+37.5+%2B+7.5+=+45+\"
\n" ); document.write( "$45
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The $9 you got is \"+.2%2A45+=+9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is taking 20% of the meal price PLUS the tip
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
