What is 100.5% of 1600?

We need to find 100.5% of 1600.

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

So 100.5% means 100.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

100.5 ÷ 100 = 1.005

This means 100.5% = 1.005

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

1.005 × 1600 = 1608

So 100.5% of 1600 = 1608

You can also think of it as a fraction:

100.5% of 1600 = (100.5/100) × 1600

= (100.5 × 1600) / 100

= 160800 / 100

= 1608
