1.\"R%2BG=32000\"
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"12R%2B5G=230000\"
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply eq. 1 by 5 and subtract from eq. 2 to eliminate G.
\n" ); document.write( "\"12R%2B5G-5R-5G=230000-160000\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"7R=70000\"
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for R then use either equation to solve for G.
