Answer: 1 over 2 (1/2)
Simplify 2 over 8 to get 1 over 4. Now you have 1 over 4 divided by 1 over 2. Whenever you divide with fractions you flip the fraction and multiply . So it becomes 1 over 4 multiplied by 2 over 1.
2/8 (divided by) 1/2
1/4 (divided by) 1/2
1/4 x 2/1
= 1/2

Answer:
x = 1/8(k-c)
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + c = k
Subtract c from each side
8x +c-c = k-c
8x = k-c
Divide each side by 8
8x/8 = (k-c)/8
x = 1/8(k-c)

Let the present age of the father = x
Let the present age of the son = y
Solution
x + y = 60
How many years will pass? You could say it's z.
x + z = y When z years pass, the son will be his father's present age.
x + z + y + z = 120 when z is added to both their current ages, the result is 120 Collect like terms
x + y + 2z = 120
<u>x + y = 60 </u> Subtract The very first equation
2z = 60 Divide by 2
z = 60/2 30 years have passed.
z = 30
x + z = y
x + 30 = y Substitute x + 30 for the present y value (the father).
x + x + 30 = 60
2x = 30
x = 15
x + y = 60
15 + y = 60
y = 60 - 15
y = 45
So the son's age right now is 15
The father's age right now is 45
