What is 120% of 800?

We need to find 120% of 800.

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

So 120% means 120 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 120% = 1.2

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

1.2 × 800 = 960

So 120% of 800 = 960

You can also think of it as a fraction:

120% of 800 = (120/100) × 800

= (120 × 800) / 100
