W+O=425
\n" ); document.write( "2.08W+0.94O=481.25
\n" ); document.write( "multiply top by -0.94 to eliminate O
\n" ); document.write( "-0.94W-0.94O=399.5
\n" ); document.write( "1.14W=81.75
\n" ); document.write( "W=71.71 bushels wheat
\n" ); document.write( "O =353.29 bushels oats
\n" ); document.write( "This seems odd as I would expect integers.
\n" ); document.write( "71.71*2.08=$149.16
\n" ); document.write( "353.29*0.94=$332.09
\n" ); document.write( "They check.
