\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The 5% refers to vehicles that did not pass.
\n" ); document.write( "So you'll use x = 10, where x is the number of vehicles that didn't pass.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To convert this to standard notation, we move the decimal point 14 spots to the left to go from 9.765625 to

The spacing between the digits is to make the number more readable. Otherwise it would look like this
