As the question stands, none of the choices is a correct answer.

In the question, I'm pretty sure there's supposed to be something in
the space between the words "worker took ... of the bags".

If "one eighth" or " 1/8 ", is stuffed into that space, then each pile
contains (1/4 of 1/8) of the entire load. That's 1/32 of it.
