\r\n" );
document.write( "Step 1: Add the 340 students to the 1400 last year to get the \r\n" );
document.write( "number of students this year.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Step 2: Make a fraction with the increase 340 as the numerator \r\n" );
document.write( "and the number of students this year that you got above as the \r\n" );
document.write( "denominator.  Then reduce the fraction by dividing both top and \r\n" );
