\n" ); document.write( "Cesar is 70 years younger than Holly. 7 years ago, Holly's age was 3 times Cesar's age. How old is Cesar now?
\n" ); document.write( "

Let Cesar's age be C
\n" );
document.write( "Then Holly's is: C + 70
\n" );
document.write( "We then get: C + 70 - 7 = 3(C - 7)
\n" );
document.write( "C + 63 = 3C - 21
\n" );
document.write( "C - 3C = - 21 - 63
\n" );
document.write( "- 2C = - 84
\n" );
document.write( "C, or Cesar is:  \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
