The greatest misfortune is that Englishmen and their Indian associates in the administration of the country do not know that the

y are engaged in the crime I have attempted to describe. I am satisfied that many Englishmen and Indian officials honestly believe that they are administering one of the best systems devised in the world and that India is making steady though slow progress. They do no know that a subtle but effective system of terrorism and an organized display of force on the one hand, and the deprivation of all powers of retaliation or self-defense on the other, have emasculated the people and induced in them the habit of simulation. This awful habit has added to the ignorance and the self-deception of the administrators.
What is the main idea of this excerpt from “Gandhi Defends His Beliefs”?

The Englishmen are compassionate and honest politicians.
Colonization has had a positive effect on the Indian identity.
Those with power in India are intentionally terrorizing the people.
Those with power in India are unaware of the consequences of their actions.

Those with power in India are unaware of the consequences of their actions.

The excerpt begins by stating how the Englishmen and Indian officials are unaware of the negative effects their actions have on the people. Towards the end, the excerpt again states their oblivion and goes on to explain exactly how their actions are harming citizens.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

3 movies and 15 commercials

Explanation:

1 movies is equal to $110 so 3 movies will give Austin $330 meaning we only need $450 remaining to make the given amount so 15 commercials will make $450. So in total the 3 movie ($330) plus the 15 commercials ($450) will make the given amount ($780) meaning his songs where played in 3 movies and 15 commercials.
