    a) D = 0.625 Decimal that describes the portion of the workday he has finished

    b) P = D*100 = 0.625*100=62.5%

    P: percentaje

    D: Decimal

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Nomenclature

    F: fraction of daily workday

    D: decimal of daily workday

    P: percentage of daily workday

    Formulas

    F = a/b

    D = a:b

    P = D*100

    Problem development

    We have:

    F = 5/8, then:

    D = 5:8 = 0.625

    To obtain the percentage of the workday that Matew has completed, we multiply the decimal x 100

    P = 0.625*100=62.5%
