I don't know if it is much of a simplification but you could rationalize the denominator by multiplying the top and bottom by #sqrt(21)#

#4/sqrt(21) = (4sqrt(21))/(21)#

As I said, not much of an improvement, but some people prefer to keep roots out of the denominator.
There is no real simplification beyond this.

I would multiply and divide by #sqrt(21)# and get:
#4/sqrt(21)*sqrt(21)/sqrt(21)=4sqrt(21)/21=sqrt(336)/21#
