What is 24.5% of 400?

We need to find 24.5% of 400.

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

So 24.5% means 24.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

24.5 ÷ 100 = 0.245

This means 24.5% = 0.245

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.245 × 400 = 98

So 24.5% of 400 = 98

You can also think of it as a fraction:

24.5% of 400 = (24.5/100) × 400

= (24.5 × 400) / 100

= 9800 / 100

= 98
