Write Top 10% on resumes or top 7% or give class rank?

my class rank is 6.99%. should i write on my resume top 10% or top 7%. i feel that the drawback of writing top 7% is that the employer will automatically know i'm 7%, whereas top 10 might suggest i'm ranked better than top 7%. (although, i'm sure that everyone would write top 5% if they were. also, i included 7.5% because perhaps some students use number like 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 etc and it doesn't appear as certain that i'm exactly 7%
