The value of eight quarters is the same as When you multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators (the top numbers in the fractions) to get the numerator of the answer, and then multiply the denominators (the bottom numbers in the fractions) to find the denominator of the answer. For example, totals 2, as you expected. Similarly, asking for a fraction of a fraction (eg.ã"one-fifth of a quarter") is a case of multiplying fractions: one-fifth of a quarter- In this problem, enter the numerator of the fraction followed by the denominator, separated by a comma For example, enter 14 as Before entering your answer, be sure to reduce your fraction completely. If you get 8/6 for your answer reduce it to 4/3 before entering it, or else will be marked wrong Also, don't worry if the numerator is larger than the denominator. It is almost always easier and more useful to further calculations to leave such answers as improper fractions rather than to convert them to mixed numbers such as 1 Part A If you have quarter of a pie and you cut it in half, what fraction of a pie would each slice represent? Enter the numerator followed by the denominator, separated by a comma.
