eights make up 3 wholes
twenty-four 24/8 = 3
8/8 or 1
Four eighths = 4/8 = 0.5

There are 24 eighths in 3 wholes because there are 8 eighths in one whole so if you multiply 8 by 3 you end up with 24 eighths.
5/8 x 24 is 15.
four and five eigths is a measurement of length in inches.
It is: 4/6 plus 3/8 = 25/24 or 1 and 1/24
Eight and seven eighths.
Four eighths = 4/8 = 0.5
In each one of the "four" there are 8/8, so that is 32/8, plus another fractional 3/8, makes a total of 35/8. So the answer is 35.
Four minus two and three-eighths equals one and five-eighths.
