Answer:
1 1/2
Explanation:
The figure shows a large rectangle that is divided into 12 parts of equal size.
Think of the entire rectangle as 1.
Each small rectangle is 1/12 of 1.
Now count 8 small rectangles starting at the left.
When you divide 1 by 8/12, you can fit 1 full 8/12 (8 small rectangles) and another half of 8/12 (another 4 small rectangles.
Since you can fit 1 1/2 groups of 8 small rectangles,the result is 1 1/2.
Answer: 1 ÷ 8/12 = 1 1/2
