Answer:

274 divided by 21 is greater than 13

Explanation:

Let x represented the our required number number.

We have been given that a number is divided by 2 is greater than 13. We can represent this information in an inequality as:


(x)/(21)>13


(x)/(21)*21>13*21


x>273

Since x is greater than 273, so least whole number value for x is 274.

Therefore, the least whole number that fits our given condition is 274.
