Question

7 divided by blank equals 56

Answer 1

7 ÷ 1/8 = 56
1/8 = 0.125.

When you are dividing fractions, to work them out you flip the fraction (or second fraction if there is 2) and change the sign. In this case, that would be 7 x 8/1.

7 x 8 = 56
56 / 1 = 56

Answer 2

Answer:

7 divided by $\frac{1}{8}$equals 56

Step-by-step explanation:

7 divided by blank equals 56

Let x be the unknown number

7 divide by x equals 56

Now frame equation for the given statement

$\frac{7}{x} = 56$

Now we solve the equation for x to find the number in blank

To get x alone multiply both sides by x

$7=56x$

Now divide both sides by 56

$\frac{7}{56} =x$

Simplify the fraction

$\frac{1}{8} =x$
