ANSWER


undefined

Step-by-step explanation

We want to simplify:


(1)/(4)/8

To do this, swap the division sign with a multiplication sign and replace 8 with its multiplicative inverse:


(1)/(4)\cdot(1)/(8)

Now, simplify:


\begin{gathered} (1)/(4)\cdot(1)/(8) \\ \Rightarrow(1)/(32) \end{gathered}
