What is 11.5% of 200?

We need to find 11.5% of 200.

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

So 11.5% means 11.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

11.5 ÷ 100 = 0.115

This means 11.5% = 0.115

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.115 × 200 = 23

So 11.5% of 200 = 23

You can also think of it as a fraction:

11.5% of 200 = (11.5/100) × 200

= (11.5 × 200) / 100

= 2300 / 100

= 23
