Question

How do you turn 7/8 into a decimal and percentage?

Answer 1

`1/1=1`

`1/2=0.5`

`1/4=0.25`

`1/8=0.125`

`(1xx7)/8=0.125xx7`

`color(magenta)(7/8=0.875`

Percentage is upon hundred..... so we need denominator as `100`

`100xx1=100`

`50xx2=100`

`33.33xx3=100`

`25xx4=100`

`20xx5=100`

`16.66xx6=100`

`14.28xx7=100`

`color(red)(12.5xx8=100`

Multiply both sides by 12.5

`(7xx12.5)/(8xx12.5)=(87.5)/100`

`color(magenta)(7/8=87.5%`
