What is one third divided by eight wholes?

(1/3) / 8

1/3 divide 8/1 ( The denominating '1' under the '8' is trivial, but makes it a fraction.

Remember the rule for division of fractions; CHANGE THE SIGN TO MULTIPLY(X) AND INVER (TURN OVER) THE RIGHT HAND FRACTION. Then proceed as multiplying fractions.

Hence.

1/3 X 1/8 =>

1 / 24 The answer!!!!!
