We can use ratios and the cross-multiply-divide to find this.
The ratio 21:5 is avaliable via the question. We then need to compare that to the ratio x:100, the 100 being the percent and the x being the number of airplane parts.
21/5 = x/100
We can then solve for x to find the number of airplane parts. First we multiply by 100 on both sides to get 2100/5 = x. Therefore x = 420 and there are 420 airplane parts.
You can tell if something is a function by checking to see if a vertical line will intersect at one spot more than once. If it does, it is not a function.
