Let n be your first number; then your 2nd number is 3n. So:
\n" ); document.write( "n(3n)=867
\n" ); document.write( "3n^2=867
\n" ); document.write( "n^2=289
\n" ); document.write( "n=17
\n" ); document.write( "3n=51
\n" ); document.write( "n+3n=68!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
