What is 4.25% of 1600?

We need to find 4.25% of 1600.

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

So 4.25% means 4.25 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

4.25 ÷ 100 = 0.0425

This means 4.25% = 0.0425

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0425 × 1600 = 68

So 4.25% of 1600 = 68

You can also think of it as a fraction:

4.25% of 1600 = (4.25/100) × 1600

= (4.25 × 1600) / 100

= 6800 / 100
