Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "Two numbers:
\n" ); document.write( "x and x - 6
\n" ); document.write( "x/(x - 6) = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "Cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "2(x) = 5(x - 6)
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 5x - 30
\n" ); document.write( "Collect like terms:
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 5x = -30
\n" ); document.write( "-3x = -30
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "Two numbers:
\n" ); document.write( "10 and 4
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
