Here, we need to divide.

3/4 ÷ 8/1

Now, do KCF.

Keep the first fraction.

3/4

Change the sign.

3/4 ×

Flip the second fraction.

3/4 × 1/8

Now multiply

3*1 =3
4*8 = 32

Final answer: 3/32

The mathematical equation for this word problem would be . . .

3/4 / 8

This equation also equals . . .

3/4 * 1/8

Then you would multiply the numerators together and the denominators together . . .

3 * 1/4 * 8

This simplifies to . . .

3/32

So, each student can get 3/32 of the cake.

Answer: 3/32 of the cake
