6...
i dont do it the way teachers in schools teach us... i have my own ways that is easier.... all i did was add the total... so 2+5 which is 7. and then i looked at how many times do 7 goes into 21 which is 3. after that i multiplied 2 by 3 and got the answer which is 6. again, not many people use this method.
