glove is 3x
\n" ); document.write( "cleats are 5x
\n" ); document.write( "hat is (1/6)*3x=1/2 x
\n" ); document.write( "spent was $184-$39.50=$144.50\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "144.50=8.5 x
\n" ); document.write( "x=$17
\n" ); document.write( "so hat is $8.50
\n" ); document.write( "gloves are $51
\n" ); document.write( "cleats are $85
\n" ); document.write( "cleats are $76.50 more than the hat.
\n" ); document.write( "
