We need to find 82.5% of 40 men (the total on the team.). The 200 lbs is extra information that we do not need to use in our calculation - so ignore that.

To find 82.5 percent - move the decimal two places to the left (.825) and multiply by 40.

40 x .825 = 33. 33 men are over 200 lbs on the team.
