Question

4 times as much as 1 third of 8

Answer 1

4 times as much as 1 third of 8 is $\frac{32}{3}$ or $10\frac{2}{3}$

Further Explanation

4 times as much as 1 third of 8 can be expressed as 4 x ($\frac{1}{3}$ x 8)

Therefore, you have:

= 4 x ($\frac{1}{3}$ x 8)

= 4 x ($\frac{8}{3}$)

= 4 x $\frac{8}{3}$

= $\frac{32}{3}$ or $10\frac{2}{3}$

It is important to note that 1 third can be expressed as $\frac{1}{3}$ and 1 third of 8 is $\frac{1}{3}$ x 8. Also since 4 and 3 cannot be divided, then we multiply both numerators.

Thus, 4 times as much as 1 third of 8 is $\frac{32}{3}$ or $10\frac{2}{3}$

Notably, the mathematical problem was solved using the rule of BODMAS. We derived the solution by using multiplication and division.
