What is 4.38% of 1600?

We need to find 4.38% of 1600.

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

So 4.38% means 4.38 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

4.38 ÷ 100 = 0.0438

This means 4.38% = 0.0438

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.0438 × 1600 = 70.08

So 4.38% of 1600 = 70.08

You can also think of it as a fraction:

4.38% of 1600 = (4.38/100) × 1600

= (4.38 × 1600) / 100

= 7008 / 100

= 70.08
