Given the statement:
There are 8 students who have 3/4 of a cake they want to share.
Determine how much of the cake will each student get.
Solution:
In order to determine how much of the cake will each student get, then we can simply divide ¾ by 8.
= ¾ / 8
It is the same as
= (¾)(1/8)
= 3/32
Final answer:
Each student would equally have 3/32 portion of the cake
