Explanation:

There are two ways to change a fraction into a decimal.
Once you have the decimal, you have the percent as well.

#rarr #divide 7 by 16
#7 div 16 =0.4375 = 4375/10000 = 43.75/100 = 43.75%#

#rarr# make an equivalent fraction with the denominator a power of 10

#7/16 xx 625/625 = 4375/10000 = 43.75/100 = 43.75%#

The below work with steps provide the detailed information about how to convert fraction 7/16 as a decimal equivalent.
step 1 Address the input parameters and observe what to be found:
Input values:
The fraction = 7/16

What to be found:
Find the decimal expansion of fraction 7/16.

step 2 The numerator is smaller than the denominator of the fraction 7/16, so find how many 10s should be multiplied with both numerator and denominator. Since the denominator is having 1 more digits than the numerator, multiply 100 with both numerator and denominator of 7/16.
= 7/16 x 100/100

step 3 Rearrange the fraction as like the below:
= 100 x 7/16 x 1/100
= 700/16 x 1/100

step 4 Simplify the above expression further:
= 700/16 x 1/100
= 688 + 12/16 x 1/100
= ( 688/16 + 12/16) x 1/100
= (43 + 12/16 ) x 1/100

step 5 Repeat the step 2 to find the decimal equivalent for the fraction 12/16 in the above expression:
= (43 + 12/16 ) x 1/100
= (43 + 0.75) x 1/100

step 6 Simplify the above expression further:
= (43 + 0.75) x 1/100
= 43.75 x 1/100
= 43.75/100
7/16= 0.4375

Hence,
7/16 as a decimal is 0.4375
