document.write( "salmon + tuna  + California = 28\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2x     + (x+4) + x          = 28\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "4x + 4 = 28  ====>  4x = 28 - 4 = 24  ====>  x =  = 6.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Answer.  6 California rolls;  6*2 = 12 salmon rolls;  6+4 = 10 tuna rolls.\r\n" );
