What is 31% of 400?

We need to find 31% of 400.

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

So 31% means 31 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

This means 31% = 0.31

0.31 × 400 = 124

So 31% of 400 = 124

You can also think of it as a fraction:

31% of 400 = (31/100) × 400
