<span>Sample answers are 1/9, 1/10, etc.

Explanation:
To write a fraction less than 1/8, you can keep the numerator 1 and make the denominator any number greater than 8. 1/8 is the same as one part out of 8. Imagine having many pizzas the same size, but cut into different numbers of pieces. 1 piece out of 8 would be a bigger piece than 1 piece out of 9, out of 10, or anything more than 8.</span>

Answer:

1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find a fraction less than 1/8.

To do so,we can write a fraction keeping the numerator 1 and taking the denominator any number greater than 8.

On keeping the numerator constant as the denominator increases the number goes on decreasing.

Hence, 1/9 is a fraction less than 1/8

Ok, so based on a survey - you know that out of 30 students, 11 said that their favourite subject is mathematics. :-)

This means that:

11/30 of these students think mathematics if their favourite subject.

Now, in order to answer your question, we are going to have to change the denominator of the fraction above to 1000. Whatever we do to the denominator of this fraction, we must do to the numerator of this fraction.

Example:

$\frac { 11 }{ 30 } \times \frac { \frac { 1000 }{ 30 } }{ \frac { 1000 }{ 30 } } \\ \\ =\frac { \frac { 11000 }{ 30 } }{ 1000 } \\ \\ =\frac { 366.\dot { 6 } }{ 1000 }$

This means that rounded to the nearest ten, theoretically speaking, 370 students out of 1000 would say that mathematics is their favourite subject.
