\r\n" );
document.write( "0.24*1 = 0.04*(1+v),\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "where v is the volume of water in gallons.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "24 = 4*(1+v),\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "24 = 4 + 4v,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "4v = 24 - 4  --->  4v = 20  --->  v =  = .\r\n" );
