imagine you have 10 <div> tags on a web page. Each div is 190 pixel wide. using the two variables in this script create a new variable named total width that multiples the width by the numofdivs variable. Because the width variable is a string , you'll need to use a java script function to retrieve the number value.
var width = '190px';
var numOfDivs = 10;
var totalWidth = parselnt (width)*parselnt (numofdivs);
