\r\n" );
document.write( "Let x be the number of all toy cars Tom has (the quantity under the problem's question).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then 2/5 of this amount,  or  \"%282%2F5%29x\"  are red cars;\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "      \"%282%2F5%29x+%2B+35\"  are green cars and 15 cars are yellow.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We add everything together and obtain this equation for the total\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    \"%282%2F5%29x\" + \"%282%2F5%29x+%2B+35\" + 15 = x.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The setup is complete.  It is your equation to solve.\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    \"%282%2F5%29x\" + \"%282%2F5%29x\" + \"%2835%2B15%29\" = x\r\n" );

document.write( "    \"%284%2F5%29x\" + 50 = x\r\n" );

document.write( "    50 = x - \"%284%2F5%29x\"  \r\n" );
