Answer:

741

Step-by-step explanation:

The farmer noticed 21 tagged moles out of the 420 moles he counted. This means that he counted 420-21 moles that didn't have a tag. The answer to that is 399. Then, the ratio is 399:21. That simplifies it to 19:1. Since he tagged 39, 19x39 would be the answer, which is 741.
