What is 7.75% of 400?

We need to find 7.75% of 400.

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

So 7.75% means 7.75 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

7.75 ÷ 100 = 0.0775

This means 7.75% = 0.0775

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0775 × 400 = 31

So 7.75% of 400 = 31

You can also think of it as a fraction:

7.75% of 400 = (7.75/100) × 400

= (7.75 × 400) / 100

= 3100 / 100

= 31
