What is the equivalent percentage of 6/8?

37.5%
60%
75%
80%

The correct answer is: 75%

When determining the equivalent percentage of a fraction, we must first divide the numerator (top number) by the denominator (bottom number), then multiply by 100. In this case, 6 divided by 8 is equal to 0.75. Multiplying 0.75 by 100 gives us 75%. This means that 6/8 is equivalent to 75%. Option A, 37.5%, is incorrect because the decimal equivalent of 37.5% is 0.375, which does not accurately represent 6/8. Option B, 60%, and Option D, 80%, are also incorrect as they are not equal to the decimal equivalent of 6/8. Therefore, the correct answer is Option C, 75%.
