\n" ); document.write( "I see your post got an empty response from another tutor. That usually means that tutor started on a response and decided to quit.

\n" ); document.write( "You will need to re-post.

\n" ); document.write( "This sounds as if it could be an interesting problem. However, the statement of the problem is grammatically incorrect; so we don't know what the problem really is.

\n" ); document.write( "The information as given in your post says

\n" ); document.write( "\"... the sum of ...... is in the ratio (3n+8):(7n+15)...\"

\n" ); document.write( "That is mathematical nonsense: a sum is a single number, not a ratio.

\n" ); document.write( "I suspect the ratio is to be between the sums of n terms of the two arithmetic progressions; but I'm not going to spend a lot of time working on a problem if I'm not sure what the question is.

\n" ); document.write( "Please re-post stating the problem correctly.
