The word of when using mathematics means to multiply. Therefore, you take .62 times .08 times 1875, which equals 93.
Notice you had to also convert the percents to a decimal by dividing the numbers by 100.

Saying "X percent of Y" is like saying "X divided by 100 times Y".
So 62% of 8% of 1875 is the same as . . .
62/100 * (8/100 * 1875)
8*1875 is 15000, divided by 100 is 150.
62*150 is 9300, divided by 100 is 93.
