What is 21% of 800?

We need to find 21% of 800.

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

So 21% means 21 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 21% = 0.21

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.21 × 800 = 168

So 21% of 800 = 168

You can also think of it as a fraction:

21% of 800 = (21/100) × 800

= (21 × 800) / 100

= 16800 / 100
