    =

    1 / 8 / 1 / 4

    = (1 / 8) (4 / 1)

    = (1) (4) / (8) (1)

    = 4 / 8

    = 1 / 2 or 0.5

    1/2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To multiply fractions we do keep change flip, keeping the first fraction, changeing the division into multiplication and flipping the last fraction so we don't have to go into decimals so 1/8 divded by 1/4 becomes

    1/8 * 4/1

    Now we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together and then put it back in fraction form. Another option is to cross reduce, both will be shown.

    Multiplying numerators and denominators

    1 * 4 = 4

    8 * 1 = 8

    Put it into fraction form;

    4/8 Now simplify

    1/2

    Cross Reducing

    To cross reduce you can divde two numbers that are accross from each other in a fraction equation (Multiplication only) by the same number

    1/8 * 4/1 The four and eight are across from each other so we can cross reduce by 4 because that is there gcf

    then we have

    1/2 * 1/1 now we multiply the numerators by numerators and the denominators by denominators in this case we don't have to go that far though because 1/1 is 1 and anything times one is itself, therefore the awnser is

    1/2
