Type 5 divided by 8 into your calculator. This should give you 0.625. Then, you can do one of two things. * You can multiply by one hundred like this: 0.625 times 100 = 62.5% or * You can move the decimal place two places to the right. 0.625 → 62.5. This gives you 62.5 also. This means that either way you solve the problem, you get the same answer: 62.5% Note: These steps can be used to change any fraction into a percent.
