Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you want to divide an amount equally, you divide the numbers. In this scenario, what you would do is this:
1/2 needs to be split 8 times
(1/2)/8
If you have something like this where the numerator is a fraction, then you multiply 2x8. that gives you 16, so now you add the 1 on top and you get 1/16.
A example can be Keith has $500 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer. He wants to have at least $200 in the account by the end of the summer. He withdraws $25 each week for food, clothes, and movie tickets. The answer would be Any more than 12 weeks and his account balance would be less than $200. Any number of weeks less than 12 and his account would stay above $200.
