d 175

Answer:

d 175

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that there are 21 players out of a total amount of people in a club who play basketball. So lets say the total amount of people who are in the club is x then we do

[tex]\frac{21}{100} *x=21[/tex]

we got the [tex]\frac{21}{100}[/tex] becasue any percent is over 100 and that time the total ammount is 21 which is the number of people.

Then we solve and we have to isolate the x

[tex]x=21*\frac{100}{12}[/tex]

then we cross cancle and we get [tex]x=175[/tex]

so the answer is d
