We need to find 13.75% of 400.

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

So 13.75% means 13.75 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

13.75 ÷ 100 = 0.1375

This means 13.75% = 0.1375

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.1375 × 400 = 55

So 13.75% of 400 = 55

You can also think of it as a fraction:

13.75% of 400 = (13.75/100) × 400

= (13.75 × 400) / 100
