Answer:

Long part= 45

Short part= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the short part of the stick be x

Let the long part be x+20

The total length of the stick is 70cm

x + (x+20)= 70

x+x+20= 70

2x+20= 70

2x= 70-20

2x= 50

x= 50/2

= 25

Longer part length= 20+25

= 45

The short part is 25

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

16,800 votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the singing competition 42,000 votes were counted.

The winner received 3/5 of the votes.

The part of the votes that the winner did not receive was 1 - 3/5 = 2/5

So the winner did not receive 2/5 of 42,000 votes which is equivalent to:

\frac{2(42,000)}{5} = 16,800 votes.
