\n" ); document.write( "If the sum of a number and twice its reciprocal is the rational number 33/4, then almost certainly the number and its reciprocal are both rational numbers.

\n" ); document.write( "33/4 is 8 1/4....

\n" ); document.write( "So skip the algebra: \"8+%2B+2%281%2F8%29+=+8+%2B+1%2F4+=+33%2F4\"

\n" ); document.write( "The number and it reciprocal are, in either order, 8 and 1/8.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
