Is this $\"+8+-+5%2F%287x%29+=+-32+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "or $\"+8+-+%285%2F7%29%2Ax+=+-32+\"$ ?
\n" ); document.write( "I'll guess it is the 2nd one
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"+7+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+56+-+5x+=+-224+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract $\"+56+\"$ from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+-5x+=+-280+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by $\"+-5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+56+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+8+-+%285%2F7%29%2A56+=+-32+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "you can finish\r
