What is 72.5% of 3200?

We need to find 72.5% of 3200.

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

So 72.5% means 72.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

72.5 ÷ 100 = 0.725

This means 72.5% = 0.725

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.725 × 3200 = 2320

So 72.5% of 3200 = 2320

You can also think of it as a fraction:

72.5% of 3200 = (72.5/100) × 3200

= (72.5 × 3200) / 100

= 232000 / 100

= 2320
