Answer:

1

Explanation:

let x be the number.so.......

if 21%of a number means 21÷100*the number(x)=3

21÷100×X=3 so when we solve this first we have to criss-cross and then 21*X=3*100

then we both divide by 21 in order to get x .so x is going to be 100 divided by 7

then.......

we are asked to get how much percent of 100÷7 is 7% so...let the answer be y

7÷100*X=y

7÷100*100*7 =Y

when calculated the answer will possibly be 1 :)))
