62.5%

Percents are parts of 100, so write 62.5 as a fraction over 100:

62.5/100

Divide the numerator and denominator by 12.5:

62.5 / 12.5 = 5
100 / 12.5 = 8

5/8

This is one form.

62.5 / 100 = 0.625

This is another form.

Answer: Two equivalent forms are :

[tex]\frac{5}{8}\ and\ \frac{125}{200}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

62.5%

We have to write in equivalent forms:

1) First equivalent form is given by

[tex]62.5\%\\\\=\frac{62.5}{100}\\\\=\frac{625}{1000}\\\\=\frac{25}{40}\\\\=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

2) Second equivalent form is given by

[tex]62.5\%\\\\=\frac{62.5}{100}\\\\=\frac{625}[1000}\\\\=\frac{625\div 5}{1000\div 5}\\\\=\frac{125}{200}[/tex]
