Answer:

62.5%

Explanation:

Notice that the rate of 5 out of 8 couples, can be also written in quotient form (to actually represent a rate) as: 5/8

That quotient gives us a number that can be written in percent form by multiplying it by 100:


(5)/(8)= 0.625\\0.625\,*\,100=62.5

Therefore this rate is equivalent to 62.5%
