You can put this solution on YOUR website!
In terms of ratios, then 79 is to 256 as 21 is to n. Then we have:
\n" ); document.write( "79/256=21/n
\n" ); document.write( "79n=5376
\n" ); document.write( "n=68.05
\n" ); document.write( "You, and your dog, need 68.05 ounces of vegetables to go with your meat. ☺☺☺☺ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
