2/8 divided by 1/4. Steps: 1. Division in math actually means multiplication. You just have to multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction (reciprocal= denominator and numerator are switched). 2. Do 2/8 times 4/1. 3. 2 times 4= 8 and 8 times 1= 8 4. Your answer would be 8/8 which equals 1. This is how you divide fractions

Sierra is going on a field trip that costs $48. The cost includes $20 for transportation and two tickets that each cost the same

True [87]

We know that there are two tickets (which we'll represent with x) and a fee for transporation (which is $20)

So we can set up the equation 20+2x=48

We want to isolate x so we'll subtract 20 from each side, which gives us the equation
2x=28

Then divide each side by 2
Giving us the final answer of

x=14

So each ticket costs $14
