Solution Steps

To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide the percentage value by 100. This will give you the equivalent decimal representation of the percentage.

Step 1: Convert Percentage to Decimal

To convert the percentage \( 37.5\% \) to a decimal, we use the formula: \[ \text{Decimal} = \frac{\text{Percentage}}{100} \] Substituting the value: \[ \text{Decimal} = \frac{37.5}{100} = 0.375 \]

Final Answer

The decimal representation of \( 37.5\% \) is \\(\boxed{0.375}\\).
