\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "4 7/9% is  the same as  \"%28%284%2A9+%2B+7%29%2F9%29\" percent = \"%2836%2B7%29%2F9\" percent = \"43%2F9\" percent = \"%281%2F100%29%2A%2843%2F9%29\" = \"43%2F900\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, they want you find an unknown number x such that\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    x + \"%2843%2F900%29x\" = 300.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Thus you have this simple equation to find x.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "First step to solve is to multiply all the terms by 900 to run of the denominators.\r\n" );
document.write( "You will get then\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    900x + 43x = 900*300\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    943x = 270000\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "       x = \"270000%2F943\" = 286.3203  (rounded).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Thus you found this mysterious number x = 286.3203.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "To check, multiply it by 43/900 and add this product to 289.3203\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "      \"286.3203+%2B+286.3203%2A%2843%2F900%29\" = use your calculator = 300.   The check is done.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "ANSWER.  The unknown number is found now: it is 286.3203 (rounded).\r\n" );
