[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To express 37^1/2% as a fraction, we can start by converting the percentage to a decimal.

To do this, divide the percentage by 100:

37^1/2% = 37.5/100

Next, we simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor (GCF). The GCF of 37.5 and 100 is 12.5 (37.5 divided by 12.5 is 3, and 100 divided by 12.5 is 8):

37.5/100 = (37.5 ÷ 12.5) / (100 ÷ 12.5) = 3/8

Therefore, 37^1/2% is equal to the fraction 3/8.
