Answer:

4.8%

Explanation:

21% of 18

following the BODMAS rule, OF means multiplication

and also this sign% always means 100

so,it will be 21/100 * 18/1

this a laptop so i cant put it in a fraction way.....okay

this is how it shows...21/100 * 18/1

lets divide....

21/100 * 18/1

we will use 2 to divide

2 in 100=50

2 in 18=9

so it will be 21/50 * 9/1

nothing can divide so we will multiply

21*9/50*1

189/50=3.78≈4.8%
