\n" ); document.write( "\"+3s+\" = Tim's speed in m/sec
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( " \"+t+=+50%2F%283s%29+\" = Tim's time in seconds for

\n" ); document.write( "In that amount of time, John's distance is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+s%2A%28+50%2F%283s%29+%29+=+50%2F3+\" m
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+50+-+50%2F3+=+%282%2F3%29%2A50+\"
