To solve the given multiplication problem, we need to multiply the integer 7 by the fraction \(\frac{1}{8}\). This can be done by multiplying the numerator of the fraction by 7 and keeping the denominator the same.
Step 1: Define the Problem
We need to calculate the product of \( 7 \) and \( \frac{1}{8} \). This can be expressed mathematically as:
\[
\square = 7 \times \frac{1}{8}
\]
Step 2: Perform the Multiplication
To perform the multiplication, we can rewrite it as:
\[
\square = \frac{7 \times 1}{8} = \frac{7}{8}
\]
Step 3: Convert to Decimal
Calculating the decimal value of \( \frac{7}{8} \):
\[
\square = 0.875
\]
Final Answer
The final result of the multiplication is:
\[
\boxed{0.875}
\]
