When dividing imperial measurements, it can help to convert them first into smaller imperial measurements. In this case we can convert the pound into 16 ounces, as there are 16 ounces in a pound. Thus the question asks what is 1/8 x 1/2 x 16 oz. To multiply fractions, you multiply numerator and denominator. Thus the question simplifies to 16/16 oz, which =1. Therefore, one eighth of half a pound is 1 ounce.

The answer is 5 Eighths.Before you add, you have to get a "common denominator". You get this by finding a common multiple of 2 and 8; in this case the common denominator would be eight. So, leave the one eighth alone and change the denominator of the one half to 8. You multiply the 2 fourtimes to make it get to 8.Youhave to do the same thing to the numerator. So multiply the 1 fourtimes, just like the denominator.lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Now, you have 4 over 8 (one half)plus 1 over 8. Answer: 5 over 8.
