Answer:
Decimal=0.125
Percent=12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that 1/8 of the faculty at long high school had attended the school as teenagers.
Let us convert [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] in decimal form by dividing 1 by 8.
[tex]\text{ Decimal form } =\frac{1}{8} =0.125[/tex]
Therefore, 0.125 of the faculty at long high school attended the school as teenagers.
Now we will write [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] as percentage by multiplying 0.125 by 100.
[tex]\text{ Percentage} =\frac{1}{8}\times 100[/tex]
[tex]\text{ Percentage} =0.125\times 100=12.5[/tex]
Therefore, 12.5% of the faculty at long high school attended the school as teenagers.
