\n" ); document.write( "Your number: n

\n" ); document.write( "1 added to your number: n+1

\n" ); document.write( "That number multiplied by 5: 5(n+1)

\n" ); document.write( "The resulting number is a multiple of 5 between 40 and 65:

\n" ); document.write( "40 < 5(n+1) < 65
\n" ); document.write( "8 < n+1 < 13
\n" ); document.write( "7 < n < 12

\n" ); document.write( "Since the number you ended up with was a multiple of 5, the original number n had to be an integer. So the numbers you are thinking of are the integers between 7 and 12.

\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: Your numbers are 8, 9, 10, and 11.

\n" ); document.write( "NOTE: \"between 40 and 65\" in the statement of the problem is ambiguous; we don't know whether or not 40 and 65 are included. My interpretation is that they are not....
