What is 38.5% of 200?

We need to find 38.5% of 200.

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

So 38.5% means 38.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

38.5 ÷ 100 = 0.385

This means 38.5% = 0.385

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.385 × 200 = 77

So 38.5% of 200 = 77

You can also think of it as a fraction:

38.5% of 200 = (38.5/100) × 200

= (38.5 × 200) / 100

= 7700 / 100

= 77
