What is 102 percent of 1125?
Answer: 1147.5
Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.
Steps:
Lets assume 102 percent of 1125 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 102% of 1125
102% can also be written as 102/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 102/100 × 1125
Or, X = 1.02 × 1125
So, X = 1147.5
So, 102% of 1125 is 1147.5
(You may also first multiply 102 with 1125, and then divide by 100 to find the answer, if that's easier for you.)
Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.
Answer verification
Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100
LHS (Percentage) = 102
RHS = 1147.5/1125 × 100
Or, RHS = 1.02 × 100
So, RHS = 102
We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
