You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm guessing the problem is
\n" ); document.write( " $\"r%2F-3+%2B+6-1=2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "first thing you do is try to isolate the variable term. 6-1=5, 2-5=-3
\n" ); document.write( " $\"r%2F-3+=+-3\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Then you can multiple both sides by -3, because $\"r%2F-3%2A-3=r\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"r+=+9\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
