\"One number is 20 more than another.\"

\n" ); document.write( "So call the two numbers x and x+20.

\n" ); document.write( "\"If the greater number is increased by 4...\"

\n" ); document.write( "So now the larger number is x+24.

\n" ); document.write( "\"... the result is five times the smaller number.\"

\n" ); document.write( "So
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2B24+=+5x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"24+=+4x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+6\"

\n" ); document.write( "The two numbers are x=6 and x+20 = 26.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
