How many 1/4 fit in 1/8

A restatement of the question would be: what is (1/8) divided by (1/4)?

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the fraction's reciprocal. To find the reciprocal of a fraction, flip the numerator and denominator. The reciprocal of (1/4) is 4/1 = 4. 
Remember when multiplying fractions, multiply numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.
\frac{1}{8}/ \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{8}* \frac{4}{1}= \frac{1}{2}

Another way to think of this is as an equation.
Let x be how many times (1/4) can fit into (1/8)
\frac{1}{4}x= \frac{1}{8} \\ 
x =  \frac{1}{8}/ \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{8}*4= \frac{1}{2}

1/4 is equivalent to .25. and 1/8 is .125. so only half of 1/4 fits in 1/8.

Answer:

<em>Center: (3,3)</em>

<em>Radius: </em>2\sqrt{5}<em />

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Midpoint and Distance Between two Points</u>

Given two points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2), the midpoint M(xm,ym) between A and B has the following coordinates:

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}

The distance between both points is given by:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Point (5,7) is the center of circle A, and point (1,-1) is the center of the circle B. Given both points belong to circle C, the center of C must be the midpoint from A to B:

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{5+1}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{7-1}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3

Center of circle C: (3,3)

The radius of C is half the distance between A and B:

d=\sqrt{(1-5)^2+(-1-7)^2}

d=\sqrt{16+64}=\sqrt{80}=\sqrt{16*5}=4\sqrt{5}

The radius of C is d/2:

r =4\sqrt{5}/2 = 2\sqrt{5}

Center: (3,3)

Radius: 2\sqrt{5}
