87.5% is the answer.

Answer 2

He ate 87.5% because to find a percent of a fraction you jut divide the denominator into the numerator, you have to ave the decimal to the right two places,  7 divided by 8 is .0875 and if you move it twice to the right you get 87.5, then you just add the percent sign and you get 87.5%
