What's 1/3rd of 1/8th?

You find the fraction of a fraction by multiplying the top numbers and (separately) multiplying the bottom numbers.\n\nTherefore, the answer is 1/3 x 1/8, or 1 x1 over 3 x 8.  1 x1 = 1, and 3 x8 = 24, so you wind up with 1/24.\n\nWhen I first learned how to do this, I wanted to divide rather than multiply.  But you multiply the fractions, and, as I said, top numbers go with top numbers and bottoms with bottoms.  Good luck!!

Well, I doubt any sixth grader knows of the floor function :)\n\nHow about 8/(3-(8/3))?\n\n3 - 8/3 = 1/3\n8/(1/3) is the same as 8*3 = 24\n\nP.S. Anyone ever played 24? It's a pretty similar game, where you get four numbers and have to make them equal 24 with these rules. Very fun :)

6 2/8 *4  becomes (6 1/4)*4 or 6.25*4=25\n\nShould view it as an elementary school fraction:  6 AND 2 eighths times 4 is 25.

if you are dividing 2/3 by 4/5, then multiply 2/3 times 5/4.  When subracting fractions, you must have a common denominator.  For 1/2 minus 3/4, multiply the 1 and the 2 by the donominator of the other (4, in this case) to get 4/8.  For the 3/4, multiply the 3 and 4 by the 2, to get 6/8.  Now you can subtract: 4/8 - 6/8 = 2/8 , which equals 1/4.

You divide fractions by multiplying the reciprical... for example:\n\n1/2 x 8/3 = 8/6 or 4/3\n\nYou simply multiple the numerators together and the denominators together after that

ok, you have 1 inch, the lines are all just fractions of that inch.  The line in the middle is one half of an inch, like 1/2.  The quarter inch line divides that inch into 4 sections therefore it is 1/4 of an inch, there are 8 eighths, 16 sixteenths, etc.  Example, 3/4 of an inch is just 3 of those 1/4 inch lines...  hope this helps...

after 1st = 80% of 10 = 0.8*10 = 8\n      2nd = 80% of 8 = 0.8*8= 6.4\n      3rd = 80% of 6.4= .8*6.4= 5.12\n      4th = 80% of 5.12= 4.096

As Lauren said, it's 1/x.\n\nMemorize this. It will be very useful.

3/8y=12\n3/8y/3/8=12/3/8\n3/8y(8/3)=12/1(8/3)\ny=32\nCheck: 3/8(32/1)=12\nRemember that when dividing by a fraction, the divisor must be inverted

A percentage is just a way of expressing something in fraction of 1/100\n\n50% (half) is 50 hundredths, right?\n\nso if you wish to express 1,844 out of 61,853 as a percentage, convert it to hundredths:\n\n(1,844 divided by 61,853) X 100 = 2.98%
