\"x+-+x%2F2+%2B+2+%2B+%281%2F2%29%28x%2F2+-+2%29+-+2+=+20\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+-+x%2F2+%2B+%281%2F2%29%28x%2F2+-+2%29+=+20\" -------- Simplifying left side
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+-+x%2F2+%2B+x%2F4+-+1+=+20\" ------- Distributing
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+-+x%2F2+%2B+x%2F4+=+21\" ------ Adding 1 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "4x - 2x + x = 84 -------- Multiplying by LCD, 4
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 84
