Solved by pluggable solver: Perimeter of a Rectangle

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"P=2w%2B2L\" Start with the general perimeter formula where W is the width and L is the length of the rectangle
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"P=2%2820%29%2B2%2812%29\" Plug in \"w=20\" and \"L=12\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"P=40%2B24\" Multiply \"2%2820%29\" to get \"40\". Multiply \"2%2812%29\" to get \"24\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " \"P=64\" Add \"40\" and \"24\" to get \"64\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " So the perimeter of the rectangle is 64
