What is 37.5% of 400?

We need to find 37.5% of 400.

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

So 37.5% means 37.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

37.5 ÷ 100 = 0.375

This means 37.5% = 0.375

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.375 × 400 = 150

So 37.5% of 400 = 150

You can also think of it as a fraction:

37.5% of 400 = (37.5/100) × 400

= (37.5 × 400) / 100

= 15000 / 100

= 150
