\r\n" );
document.write( "Let x be the distance under the question.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then you have this \"time\" equation\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( " -  = 2  minutes.           <<<---=== Every fraction on the left side is the time to cover the distance . . . \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "To solve it, multiply both sides by 315*420. You wiil get\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "420x - 315x = 2*315*420\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "105x = 264600\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "x =  = 2520 ft.     ANSWER\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "CHECK.    = 8 minutes;    = 6 minutes;   8 - 6 = 2 minutes.   ! Correct !\r\n" );
