We need to find 8.38% of 1600.

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

So 8.38% means 8.38 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

8.38 ÷ 100 = 0.0838

This means 8.38% = 0.0838

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0838 × 1600 = 134.08

So 8.38% of 1600 = 134.08

You can also think of it as a fraction:

8.38% of 1600 = (8.38/100) × 1600
