35300 tons of sugar beet we need in order to get 7,413 tons of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  in sugar beet, there is 21% of sugar.  Need to find out how much sugar beet we need in order to get 7,413 tons of sugar. Let we need x tone of sugar beet. So, according to the asked data, we have

                        $21 \% \text { of } x=7413$

                        $\frac{21}{100} \times x=7413$

                        $0.21 \times x=7413$

                        $x=\frac{7413}{0.21}$

                        x = 35300 tones
