document.write( "Write a proportion as you read the problem\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    \"A%2FB\" = \"70%2F49\" = \"x%2F28\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "From the proportion, find  x = \"%2828%2A70%29%2F49\" = \"%284%2A70%29%2F7\" = 4*10 = 40 mg.\r\n" );
