Owen Jones · Answer 1

60 windows and 1/5 ARE being replaces. lets start out by finding out how many window are being replaces.

60/5=12

12 of the windows are being replaces

now subtract that from 60 and you will have your answer

60-12=48

48 windows are now being replaced

Leland Reyes · Answer 2

I think the answer would be 48. Because if you divide 60 by 5. Then you get 12. and that would be 1/5 of it. so then you subtract that from 60
