STEP 1:
First we need both in the same unit of measurement.

1 pint= 2 cups

Convert 15 cups to pints:
=15 cups ÷ 2 cups per pint
=7.5 pints

STEP 2:
Find percentage:
=8 pints ÷ 7.5 pints
=1.0666 decimal percent of 8 pints

STEP 3:
Convert to %:
=1.06666 x 100
=106.66% percent 8 is of 7.5 pints

*TIP: if you know you're changing to a percentage from a decimal, you will always move the decimal two places to the right.

ANSWER:
8 pints is 106.66% of 7.5 pints.

Hope this helps! :)
