1/2 divided by 4 = 1/_________

1 answer

To solve \( \frac{1}{2} \div 4 \), you can rewrite the division as multiplication by the reciprocal:

\[ \frac{1}{2} \div 4 = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{4} \]

Now, multiply the fractions:

\[ \frac{1 \times 1}{2 \times 4} = \frac{1}{8} \]

Thus,

\[ \frac{1}{2} \div 4 = \frac{1}{8} \]

Therefore, \( 1/2 \div 4 = 1/_________ \) leads to the answer:

\[ \frac{1}{8} \]

So the blank should be filled with 8.
