Answer 2

Answer: 87.5

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to divide the numerator by the denominator, to convert the fraction to a decimal:

Mathematically speaking:

7 /8 = 7÷8 =0.875

Finally, we have to multiply the result by 100 to convert the decimal number to percentage.

0.875 x 100 = 87.5

87.5 already has only one digit in the fractional part. So,it is already rounded  to the nearest tenth.
