What is 102% of 50?

We need to find 102% of 50.

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

So 102% means 102 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 102% = 1.02

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

1.02 × 50 = 51

So 102% of 50 = 51

You can also think of it as a fraction:

102% of 50 = (102/100) × 50

= (102 × 50) / 100

= 5100 / 100
