21% of 400 = 84
To solve this problem, you can either set up an equation or think it through and save some paper and time.
1. Setup
21 84
--- = ---
100 x
2. Remove denominators (by multiplying both sides by each)
21*x = 100*84
or 21x = 8400
3. Solve for x by dividing each side by 21
x = 8400/21
x = 400
The way I quickly thought through the answer was to consider what 21% means: 21/100. So, the ratio between 21 and 100 needs to be applied to 84. I did this:
100/21 = 4.76
4.76 * 84 = 400
If that's more than you were looking for, sorry, but the answer is 400.
