Answer
37.5%
Work Step by Step
In order to write the fraction $\frac{3}{8}$ as a percent, we can set $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{p}{100}$ and solve for p (where $\frac{p}{100}=p$%).
We can solve by using cross products.
$3\times100=8\times p$
$300=8p$
Divide both sides by 8.
$p=37.5$
Therefore, $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{37.5}{100}$=37.5%.
