xxx = C – A + B - D

2. Du ser en liten byggnad med en tvåspråkig skylt på taket. Talet yyy berättar hur många 1000-dels minuter rakt österut gömman finns. (Byggnaden är riven men minnet av den finns kvar tack vare Google)

F = Hur många stenar (århundraden) finns det som visar landhöjningen vid punkt 1?
