To determine how much pizza each person gets, you take the portion of pizza (3/4) and divide it by the number of people (8):
\[
\text{Slice per person} = \frac{3/4}{8}
\]
To divide a fraction by a whole number, you can multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the whole number:
\[
\frac{3}{4} \div 8 = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{3 \times 1}{4 \times 8} = \frac{3}{32}
\]
So each person gets \( \frac{3}{32} \) of the pizza.
However, looking at your given options, none of them match \( \frac{3}{32} \). Please check if the problem or the options have been stated correctly. Is there another part to this problem?

I apologize for the confusion. Let's go through the calculation again step by step.
Ginger is sharing \( \frac{3}{4} \) of a pizza with 8 people. To find out how much pizza each person gets, we divide \( \frac{3}{4} \) by 8:
\[
\text{Slice per person} = \frac{3/4}{8}
\]
To divide by 8, we can multiply by the reciprocal of 8, which is \( \frac{1}{8} \):
\[
\frac{3}{4} \div 8 = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{3 \times 1}{4 \times 8} = \frac{3}{32}
\]
However, since you indicated this is incorrect, let's analyze the original question and the answer options you provided more closely.
If we were to re-evaluate:
1. Take the total \( \frac{3}{4} \) pizza.
2. Divide it by 8 people.
That means we are actually distributing the \( \frac{3}{4} \).
Though we confirmed the calculation is correct, let's think about how to express the answer in a common format:
The possible options are:
- \( \frac{1}{4} \) of the pizza
- \( \frac{1}{2} \) of the pizza
- \( \frac{1}{12} \) of the pizza
- \( 6 \frac{3}{4} \) of the pizza
Out of these, none corresponds to \( \frac{3}{32} \).
Upon reviewing it seems I’ve made the calculation correctly, yet if there's a mention somewhere of misunderstanding the dividing method or if you're looking at slice sizes rather than just total distribution, please clarify.
Directly, if you share a total of \( \frac{3}{4} \) among 8 people, the proportion is effectively \( \frac{3/4}{8} = \frac{3/4 \times 1/8} = \frac{3}{32} \) of the pizza per person, which doesn't match available options.
Could you please confirm the conditions once more, or provide more context if there is any additional specification that could affect this?
