Answer:

6.875 or 6 7/8

Explanation:

Because first we add the whole numbers 3 + 3=6

So we have 6 holes.

Now sense our demionters are not the same were going to try to get 4 to 8 so x 2.

sense we times the denominator on 1/4 we have to times 1 by 2 also.

so so now our 1 is a 2.

Next were going to add 2 + 5=7 so out fraction is 6 holes and 7/8

The reason i also said 6.875 is because 7/8=0.875 or 87.5%

So fraction form =6 7/8

decimal form=6.875

And percent form=87.5%

Hope this helps have a great afternoon:)
