    3/56 is the fraction of the bag of marble that each person receive.

    bag of marbles = 3/8

    divided by = 7 people

    3/8 : 7

    In dividing fraction, get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction and multiply it to the 1st fraction.

    1st fraction = 3/8

    2nd fraction = 7 ⇒ 7/1, reciprocal = 1/7

    3/8 * 1/7 = 3 * 1 / 8 * 7 = 3/56

    each person will receive 3/56 of the bag of marbles.
