How to find the percent?

When you are doing actual math, you need to use actual numbers. Always convert the percentages to decimals!) Then, since "sixteen percent OF fourteen hundred" tells you to multiply the 0.16 and the 1400, you get: (0.16) (1400) = 224. This says that 224 is sixteen percent of 1400.
