This type of calculation will become very easy for you if you learn to translate two things:
% ; percent literally means "per hundred", so 4% is just an abbreviation for 4/100.
"of" in this context implies multiplication.
So, 4% of 13420 can be turned into
(4/100)*(13420)
I'd multiply it out on a calculator. (And you can save typing by turning 4/100 into 0.04 in your head.)

4% = 0.04
Just multiply 13420 by .04
13,420 x .04 = 536.80 ==> the answer
