We need to find 1.17% of 6400.

The word "percent" means "per hundred" or "out of 100".

So 1.17% means 1.17 out of every 100.

To calculate with percentages, we first convert to a decimal.

Divide the percentage by 100:

1.17 ÷ 100 = 0.0117

This means 1.17% = 0.0117

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0117 × 6400 = 74.88

So 1.17% of 6400 = 74.88

You can also think of it as a fraction:

1.17% of 6400 = (1.17/100) × 6400
