There are two ways:

1.   (42,000 * 3)/5 =

126000/5 =

25200

2.    42000/5 =

8400*3 =

25200

Now subtract 25200 from original

42000 - 25200 = 16800

16800 votes were not for the winner

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:Number of squares colored red= 180-40= 140 squares

Step-by-step explanation:

Hannah has a grid of squares that has 12 rows with 15 squares in each row. This means the length of the gris is 15 squares and the breadth is 12 squares.

Area of grid = length × breadth

=15×12 = 180

She colors 5 rows of 8 squares in the middle of the grid blue. This means the part coloured blue has a length of 8 squares and breadth of 5 squares.

Area of blue colored part = 8×5 = 40

Number of squares colored red= total number of squares - number of square colored blue= 180-40= 140 squares

Answer: Yes. On average, it takes about 455 days for 1 person to throw away 1 ton of garbage, so just over 1 year.

Help pleaseeeeee!!?’dndjfjcjdc
Vanyuwa [196]

answer: 50°

If triangle is isosceles than L and J are same angles

3x + 20 = 4x + 10

3x-4x=10-20

-x = -10 (divide both sides by -1)

x=10

angle L=J = 3*10+20= 50

we can calculate it like this too 4*10 +10= 50
