\r\n" );
document.write( "1.  Olivia donated 24 dollars, according to the condition.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Hence, Megan donated the rest 100-24 = 76 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2.  These 76 dollars are  what Megan had initially, according to the condition.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Hence, Megan had initially 76*5 = 380 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "3.  After donating, Megan had 380 - 76 = 304 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    After donating, Olivia had 32 dollars more than Megan (had after donating), i.e. 304 + 32 = 336 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "4.  To these 336 dollars, add that 24 dollars Olivia donated to get 336 + 24 = 360 dollars. It is what Olivia had before donation.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "5.  Thus we found that before donation Megan had 380 dollars, while Olivia had 360 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Hence, their total was 380 + 360 = 740 dollars before donation.\r\n" );
