\n" ); document.write( "Let x = diameter of the large pizza:
\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2F5\" = .4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ".4x + 2 = 16
\n" ); document.write( ".4x = 16 - 2
\n" ); document.write( ".4x = 14
\n" ); document.write( "x = 14/.4
\n" ); document.write( "x = 35 cm is the diameter of the large pizza
\n" ); document.write( "
