Question

What is 1/3 divided by 8

Answer 1

- - Solve:

Change 8 into a fraction:

$\frac{8}{1}$

- - Now flip that:

$\frac{1}{8}$

- - Now we are going to multiply rather than divide.

$\frac{1}{3} * \frac{1}{8}$

- - Simplify that:

$\frac{1}{24}$ so that is your complete and final answer.

Answer 2

$\frac{1}{3}$  ÷ $\frac{8}{1}$

Keep the first fraction:

1/3

Change the sign:

×

Flip the second fraction:

1/8

Now complete:

1/3 * 1/8

1*1 = 1
3*8 = 24

1/24

Answer: $\frac{1}{24}$
