Subtracting whole numbers does not include subtracting negative numbers, whereas when subtracting integers you can include negative numbers.
Let the required no. be x then according to question
(84/100)*x = 21
x = 21*(100/84)
x = 2100/84
x = 25
hence the required no. is 25

.65 because 3/5 is equal to .6
Take away the bottom equation from the top so the y’s cancel out
3x = -24
x therefore = -8
and put x back into the equation to find out y
2(-8) + y= 32
-16 + y =32
y= 48
