$$\mathrm{21}? \\ $$

I think in top=21=mesure of line and down =(Area)

$${I}\:{think}\:\:{in}\:{top}=\mathrm{21}={mesure}\:{of}\:{line} \\ $$$${and}\:{down}\:=\left({Area}\right) \\ $$

$${or}\:\:{the}\:{inverse} \\ $$

$${no}\:{sir} \\ $$

wrong! even blind people can clearly see that blue area must be much bigger than the gray area 21. so 21 is clearly wrong. 100 is the right answer.
