What is 225% of 1600?

We need to find 225% of 1600.

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

So 225% means 225 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 225% = 2.25

Now multiply the decimal by the number:
