What is 74.5% of 800?

We need to find 74.5% of 800.

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

So 74.5% means 74.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

74.5 ÷ 100 = 0.745

This means 74.5% = 0.745

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.745 × 800 = 596

So 74.5% of 800 = 596

You can also think of it as a fraction:

74.5% of 800 = (74.5/100) × 800

= (74.5 × 800) / 100

= 59600 / 100

= 596
