9 and 1/2
7 eights because 1 fourth is equal to 2 eights.
It is: 1/4 divided by 3/8 = 2/3 in its simplest form
Converting this to eights, it becomes: 2 eights + 4 eights + 1 eight = 7 eights.
There are two eights in one fourth.
1/4 + 2/8 = 1/2
It is so simple 8/2=4
1/4 or one fourth.
2/8 = 1/4
1/2
2 ..... 1 2 2 --- x --- = --- 4 2 8
2 1/4 divided by 1/4 equals to 9
2 fourths is a half. (Seven eights minus a half) 7 x 8 - 0.5 = 55.5 (Seven eights minus a half) 7/8 - 1/2 = 3/8
