document.write( "Let M be the rate of work for a man and B be the rate of work for a boy.\r\n" );
document.write( "Then from the condition you have this system of equations\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2M + 7B = ,     (eq1)\r\n" );
document.write( "3M + 8B = .     (eq2)\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Solve the system (it is just a technique) and find M and B.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then evaluate 8M + 6B and calculate reciprocal.\r\n" );
