\n" ); document.write( "let s = no. of magazine sets
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "11.80s + \"s%2F12\"(58.40) = 2600
\n" ); document.write( "multiply eq by 12 to get rid of the denominator
\n" ); document.write( "141.6s + 58.40s = 31200
\n" ); document.write( "200s = 31200
\n" ); document.write( "s = 31200/200
\n" ); document.write( "s = 156 magazine sets sold that month
