Answer: →48←

My work:

Step 1: Our output value is 1600.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x

Step 3: From step 1 above, 1600=100

Step 4: Similarly, x=3%

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

1600=100% (1).

x=3% (2).

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

x/1600= 3/100

x⇒=48

Therefore, 3% of 1600 is 48

Hope this helps!
