Step1: Convert percentage to decimal
To find 40% of 450, first convert 40% to a decimal. 40% is equivalent to $0.4$ (since $40\%=\frac{40}{100} = 0.4$).
Step2: Multiply by total number of students
Now, multiply this decimal by the total number of students (450). So, we calculate $450\times0.4$.
$450\times0.4 = 180$.
