Do you mean 5-1/4" ? While 7" did exist they were extremely rare outside of research academia/business and even then fairly rare. The main stream computers like the Apple IIe (in 82' ?) Came with 5-1/5" floppies. The IIe, being an extremely popular public school choice.
8 inch were the old machines - 1970s. 5.25" came in the early '80s
