Surely miller, it isn't even necessary to do that? Maybe I'm being dense here, but isn't the answer obvious just by looking? It's like this...
X + __ = Y + X

an apple and __ _______ = an orange and an apple
Don't 'Y' and 'an orange' sort of leap out at you?
As scientist, yes an orange and an apple do "leap" out at me. As a teacher, however, it's important to
