5/8 is the same as having five 1/8s, ie 5/8 = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 6/8 is the same as having six 1/8s, ie 6/8 = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 = (1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8) + 1/8 = 5/8 + 1/8 ie 6/8 is 5/8 plus and extra 1/8 which is 5/8 plus something (positive), thus it must be greater than 5/8
2 - 1/8 = 1 + 1 - 1/8 = 1 + (1-1/8) = 1 + 7/8 or 17/8
1/8 x 8/1 = 8/8 = 1/1 = 1
8 times -1/8=-8/8, and -8/8 is -1, -1-1=2
1/8 of 8 is 1.
1/8 of 8 = 1 because................ of = x (multiplication) and....................... 1/8 x 8 = 1/8 x 8/1 = 1 numerator (1) x numerator (8) = 8 so............. 8 is the numerator denominator (8) x denominator (1) = 8 so.............. 8 is the denominator also and........... 8/8 = 1 so................. 1/8 of 8 is 1
1/4 - 1/8 = 2/8 - 1/8 = 1/8
1 - 1/8 First convert both to common denominator. 1 = 8/8 1 - 1/8 = 8/8 - 1/8 Next, subtract the numerators. 8 - 1 = 7 Put the difference between the numerators above the common denominator. 8/8 - 1/8 = 7/8 7/8 is your answer.
5/8 ÷ -1 = -5/8
improper fraction of 1 1/8 = 9/81 1/8:= [(8 * 1)+1]/8= [8+1]/8= 9/8 in improper fraction
1/4 - 1/8 = 2/8 - 1/8 = 1/8
There are 8 ones in 8 (1 x 8 = 8). There are also 8 eighths in 1 (8 x 1/8 = 1).
