To find out what number 21 is 30% of, you can set up the equation:
\[ 21 = 0.30 \times x \]
Where \( x \) is the unknown number. To solve for \( x \), you can rearrange the equation:
\[ x = \frac{21}{0.30} \]
Now, calculate \( x \):
\[ x = \frac{21}{0.30} = 70 \]
Therefore, 21 is 30% of 70.
The answer is:
70
