What is 57.5% of 1600?

We need to find 57.5% of 1600.

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

So 57.5% means 57.5 out of every 100.

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

Divide the percentage by 100:

57.5 ÷ 100 = 0.575

This means 57.5% = 0.575

Now multiply the decimal by the number:

0.575 × 1600 = 920

So 57.5% of 1600 = 920

You can also think of it as a fraction:

57.5% of 1600 = (57.5/100) × 1600

= (57.5 × 1600) / 100

= 92000 / 100

= 920
