We need to find 155% of 800.

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

So 155% means 155 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 155% = 1.55

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

155% of 800 = (155/100) × 800
