ANSWER:

16 is 0.4 % of 4000

SOLUTION:

Given that, 16 is what percent of 4000

So, we need to find what percent of 4000 is 16.

Let the percent value be x.

Now according to given information,

x percent of 4000 = 16

x % of 4000 = 16

x % × 4000 = 16

x % can be written as “x” divided by 100

$\begin{array}{l}{(x)/(100) * 4000=16} \\\\ {(x * 4000)/(100)=16} \\\\ {(4000 x)/(100)=16} \\\\ {40 x=16}\end{array}$

x = (16)/(40)

x = (2)/(5) = 0.4

Hence, 16 is 0.4 % of 4000.
