Well, I can't draw, so I'll explain. You draw a 10x21 Grid, and then divide each 10. Write 1, 2, 3, 4, ... until 21 under each section of the grid.

Explanation:

Well, we know #210/10 = 21#.

So, we will draw a 10x21 grid.

Divide the grid horizontally so that there are 21 equal pieces.

Label each piece like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... and so on.

When you get to 21, circle your answer.

Yay!
