Well, first things first, one over eight (1/8) is basically one eighth.
So, one way of doing it is
1/8 of 4 =
= 4 ÷ 8 =
= 4/8 =
= 2/4 =
= 1/2 =
= 0.5
Confused? Well, first,
1/8 of 4 = <= First, the formula )
= 4 ÷ 8 = <= Then, we turn it into one of the operations which are simpler to use.)
= 4/8 = <= Then, we clump it back into a fraction, which is another form of division.)
= 2/4 = <= Next, we simplify it, i.e. divide both detonator and numerator by 2.)
= 1/2 = <= Or, we could've divided both by 4 instead, to make it a half.)
= 0.5 <= And now, we turn it into a decimal! Ta-da)
Hope I helped!

one over four >>>= two over eight , three over twelve and so on ........... :)
3/8 of 1/4 = 12/8 which in simplest form would be 1 1/2
If you are asking one-eighth plus two-thirds then the answer is 14/16 which reduces to 7/8. Find the least common denominator (16) If you are asking one over one-eith plus two-thirds then the answer is 8 and two-thirds. This is because one over one-eighth means one divided by one eighth. You would invert the denominator (one-eighth) and multiply it to one. Eight over one is the same as eight. One times eight equals eight. Then add eight to two-thirds. This equals eight and two thirds (8 2/3).
That would be 7/8.
26 ÷ -8/5 = -65/4 or -161/4
