Divide 3 by 8 and get 0.375 as a decimal. Multiply this by 100 to get the percentage: 37.5%

Write it as a decimal first...either use long division or a calculator 3/8 = 0.375
To write as a percent, just multiply the decimal by 100 and stick a % sign at the end of it... 37.5%

Dividing 3 by 8 (3/8) you get the decimal equivalent of 0,375 and by moving the decimal point two spaces to the right you get the percentage of of it, which is 37.5 or 37.50%.
Simple stuff!

Divide 3 by 8 and get .375. As a percentage of 100 I suppose it would be .00375. In baseball it would be given as a batting average. For every 8 times at bat, you get 3 hits; your batting average is 375. If your having trouble at math, work on your hitting then you won't have to worry about it.

All you have to do is use 3 and divide it by 8, which is 0.375 (answer as decimal). For the percentage, multply it by 100%, so it is 37.5%.

For decimal, divide:
3/8 = 0.375
For %, multiply decimal by 100:
0.375(100) = 37.5%

tips from my dr teacher in approximating fractions:
3/8 = 4/8 -1/8 = 0.25 - 0.125 = 0.375 ===> decimal
decimal to percentage:
since 100 has two zeroes attached to it, just move the decimal point two places to the right....and youll have 37.5%
percentage FYI is per cent or per hundred....i know u know about that..
so gotcha!!!
