What Percent is 40 of 200?

We need to find what percentage 40 is of 200.

Part (the amount we have): 40

Whole (the total): 200

We're asking: "40 out of 200 is how many percent?"

To find what percent one number is of another, we use:

Percentage = (Part ÷ Whole) × 100

This gives us the part as a fraction of the whole, then converts to a percentage.

Step 1: Divide the part by the whole:

Step 2: Multiply by 100 to convert to percent:

0.2 × 100 = 20%

40 is 20% of 200.

This means if you had 200 items and took 40 of them,

you would have 20% of the total.
