Why are there 400 gradians in a circle instead of 360 degrees?

The gradian was defined during the French metrication effort so a right angle equals exactly 100 gradians, making a full turn 400 — nicer for decimal math, less aligned with astronomy and timekeeping (360 divides evenly by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12…). Engineering in most countries still uses degrees; gradians survive mainly in surveying and some European calculators.
