80% of 8.75=7. I'm pretty sure this is the reason.

Answer:

It's because of the decimal of .8

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be confusing but since its not a whole number when you multiply with a whole number gets smaller instead of bigger. So the whole number basically has to give some of it to the decimal so, that the outcome can be a whole number.

Sorry, if this isn't the best!
