What is 240 percent of 874?
Answer: 2097.6
Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.
Steps:
Lets assume 240 percent of 874 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 240% of 874
240% can also be written as 240/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 240/100 × 874
Or, X = 2.4 × 874
So, X = 2097.6
So, 240% of 874 is 2097.6
(You may also first multiply 240 with 874, 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) = 240
RHS = 2097.6/874 × 100
Or, RHS = 2.4 × 100
So, RHS = 240
We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
