Answer:

ok so out of 210 14 speak 3 or more so that is a ratio of

210:14

so lets find out how many times 210 goes into the whole populaiton

29370/210=139.857142857

then lets multiply the 14 by that amount

14*139.857142857=1958(exact)

so out of the 29370 1958 speak 3 or more launges

Hope This Helps!!!
