Let $\"+a+\"$ = number of small books packed
\n" ); document.write( "Let $\"+b+\"$ = number of large books packed
\n" ); document.write( "Let $\"+c+\"$ = number of boxes used
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(1) $\"+a+%2B+b++%3C=+350+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(2) $\"+c+%3C=+35+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "(3) $\"+a%2F15+%2B+b%2F8+%3C=+c+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
