Answer 2

Given: A percentage value-  $7\frac{1}{2}$ %  

To find: Fraction and decimal number of the given percentage

Solution: The given percentage value can be expressed as:

$7\frac{1}{2}$ % = $\frac{2 \ * \ 7 \ + \ 1}{2} = \frac{15}{2} \ or \ 7.5$ %

To convert the percentage to fractional value, we need to divide it by 100.

∵ $\frac{7.5}{100} \ or \ \frac{75}{1000}$

To convert the fractional value to decimal value, we need to divide 75 by 1000.

∵ $\frac{75}{1000} = 0.075$

Hence, 7.5% is $\frac{75}{1000}$ in fractional form and 0.075 in decimal form.
