\begin{gathered} To\text{ write this fraction as a percentage} \\ \text{You start by converting to proper fractions} \\ (37)/(5)=7(2)/(5) \\ \text{You can now convert the fraction by simply multiplying by }100 \\ \text{Percentage}=(2)/(5)*100 \\ \text{Percentage}=(200)/(5) \\ \text{Percentage}=40 \\ As\text{ it is a fraction, you can express it thus,} \\ 7.40 \end{gathered}

Thats 7.40%
