Answer:
![1\frac{7}{9} =\frac{16}{9} =[\frac{4}{3}] ^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B9%7D%20%3D%5Cfrac%7B16%7D%7B9%7D%20%3D%5B%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%5D%20%5E%7B2%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
 
        
             
        
        
        
For this case we can make the following rule of three:
 21 ------> 70%
 x --------> 100%
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (100/70) * (21)
 Rewriting we have:
 x = (10/7) * (21)
 x = 30
 Thus,
 21 is 70% of 30
 Answer:
 21 is 70% of 30
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
$13.50
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we got to multiply $18 by 25% or .25
$18 x .25 = $4.50
Lastly, we just subtract $4.50 from $18.
$18 - $4.50 = $13.50
