Let the second year be x
\n" ); document.write( "let the first year be 3x
\n" ); document.write( "sum = 560
\n" ); document.write( "3x+x=560
\n" ); document.write( "4x=560
\n" ); document.write( "4x/4=560/4
\n" ); document.write( "x=140
\n" ); document.write( "3x140= 420\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore he saved 420 first year and 140 second year
