(36)/(8)=(36:4)/(8:4)=(9)/(2)=(8+1)/(2)=(8)/(2)+(1)/(2)=\boxed{\boxed{4(1)/(2)}}

36/8 is equal to 4 1/2. Just divide 36 by 8 to see how many times 8 goes into 36 (4 times). Then take 32 (4x8) out of the 36. You are left with 4/8 which reduces (DON'T FORGET TO REDUCE THE FRACTION) to 1/2. So, the answer is 4 1/2.
