5 out of 8 can also be written as 5/8.
To turn this fraction into a percentage you must divide the numerator by the denominator, thus:
5 divided by 8
Which is .625
Convert the decimal to a percentage by multiplying it by 100 (in other words moving the decimal point two digits to the right) to arrive at the answer:
62.5%
