 \r\n" );
document.write( "So A = 6J\r\n" );

After Anthony lost 36 cards to Juan
\r\n" );
document.write( "Then Anthony had A-36 and Juan had J+36

\n" ); document.write( "in a game and (Anthony) gave away 53 cards to other friends,
 \r\n" );
document.write( "Then Anthony had A-36-53 or A-89.

\n" ); document.write( "they have the same number cards left
\r\n" );
document.write( "So J+36 = A-89 \r\n" );

document.write( "J+36 = 6J-89\r\n" );
document.write( " 125 = 5J\r\n" );
