Final answer:
In order to evaluate the expression, divide 1 by 8. The value of the expression is one-eighth.
The answer is option ⇒a
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate the expression, we need to divide 1 by 8. When we divide 1 by 8, the result is a quotient of 0.125.
Dividing involves distributing the value of 1 into 8 equal parts. Since there is only 1 part being divided, each part represents 1/8 or one-eighth of the whole.
To visualize this, imagine having a pie divided into 8 equal slices. If you have only 1 slice, that would be equivalent to one-eighth of the whole pie. Similarly, when dividing 1 by 8, the resulting quotient is one-eighth or 0.125.
Therefore, the value of the expression is 0.125, which represents one-eighth.
Therefore, the value of the expression is one-eighth or option A.
