I'm thinking you mean
\n" ); document.write( "\"There's an octagon shape. The interior ratio of angles is 1:2:2:3:3:4:4:5. Find the largest interior angle and the largest exterior angle.\"
\n" ); document.write( "If so...we continue...
\n" ); document.write( "If the ratio of angles is is 1:2:2:3:3:4:4:5, their sum can be expressed as
\n" ); document.write( "x + 2x + 2x + 3x + 3x + 4x + 4x + 5x = 24x
\n" ); document.write( "These angles sum to 1080 degrees, the total within every octagon.
\n" ); document.write( "Thus
\n" ); document.write( "24x = 1080
\n" ); document.write( "x = 45
\n" ); document.write( "That makes the largest interior angle 5x = 5(45) = 225 degrees.
\n" ); document.write( "The largest exterior angle is 180 - 45 = 135 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "The main problem with this analysis is that two of the angles aren't angles at all...4x = 4(45) = 180 degrees...not to mention angles greater than 180 are spurious...
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
