What is 3.75% of 16000?

We need to find 3.75% of 16000.

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

So 3.75% means 3.75 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

3.75 ÷ 100 = 0.0375

This means 3.75% = 0.0375

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0375 × 16000 = 600

So 3.75% of 16000 = 600

You can also think of it as a fraction:

3.75% of 16000 = (3.75/100) × 16000
