Hey! 70 skittles is your answer. My work's below!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

First, use this formula:

a certain percent (%) = a certain number (#)

# x 100 / %

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

In this scenario...

30% = 21 (your provided numbers)

21 x 100 / 30 (the formula in action)

2,100 / 30 = 70

(2,100 is the result of 21 x 100, so divided by 30 you have 70!)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Good luck! :)
