City records showed that 0.8% of new homes had no access to electricity. Express this percent as a decimal
in simplest form.

The decimal would be 0.008.

If you wanted a fraction in simplest form, it would be 1/125.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8% divided by 100 (move the decimal in the percent two places to the left) = 0.008

0.008 as a fraction is 8/1000, and then you divide both numbers by their GCF of 8, which will give you a fraction in simplest form of 1/125.

I hope this helps!
