Answer:

210 people are there at the fair

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of people at the fair = X

People under 16 years old        = 70% of X = 0.7 X

People remaining                       = Total number of people - Under 16 years

                                                    = X - 0.7X = 0.3X

The number of teachers             = 1/3 of People remaining = 1/3 of 0.3X

Since there are 21 teachers

                            1/3 of 0.3X       =  21

                              1/3 x 0.3X       =  21        

                                     0.1X         =   21  

Divide both sides by the coefficient of X            

                                    0.1X/0.1     =   21/0.1

                                               X     =  210

That is 210 people are there at the fair
