B = D+6 We'll use this value for B next:
\n" ); document.write( "5B+2D = 247 Now substitute for B:
\n" ); document.write( "5(D+6)+2D = 247
\n" ); document.write( "5D+30+2D = 247
\n" ); document.write( "7D = 217 Divide both sides by 7:
\n" ); document.write( "D = 31 and B:
\n" ); document.write( "31+6 = 37
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

\n" ); document.write( "\"If you take 5 times bobby's age and add 2 times Daniel's age the result is 247\"
\n" ); document.write( "5(37)+2(31)= 247
\n" ); document.write( "185+62 = 247 We have the correct answer.
