The half-hearted answer is $$${\frac{{\mathtt{75}}}{{\mathtt{8}}}}$$. However, when was the last time you bought something and paid $$${\frac{{\mathtt{75}}}{{\mathtt{8}}}}$$ for it? Since price is never in fractions, first convert to a mixed number. You get $9 $${\frac{{\mathtt{3}}}{{\mathtt{8}}}}$$. Now convert to a decimal, which is $9.375. Since you can't pay half a cent for something, this would generally be rounded to $9.37.
