Let original number of cards that Kevin and June had, be K, and J, respectively\r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "When June gives Kevin ½ of her cards, she will have ½J left, and Kevin will have K + ½J  
\n" );
document.write( "We then get: K + ½J = ½J + 72
\n" );
document.write( "\"matrix%281%2C3%2C+K+%2B+%281%2F2%29J+-+%281%2F2%29J%2C+%22=%22%2C+72%29\"

document.write( "When June gives Kevin \"1%2F6\" of her cards, she will have \"5J%2F9\" left, and Kevin will have \"K+%2B+J%2F6\" cards
