Simplify and Evaluate the following fraction:

8
40

First, evaluate the numerator and denominator

The numerator is 8

The denominator is 40

Reduce our fraction

GCF(8 and 40) = 8

Reduce the numerator by GCF

(1/8) x 8 = 1

Reduce the denominator by GCF

(1/8) x 40 = 5

Build our reduced answer

1
5

1/5



Convert this fraction number to a mixed number.

Let's find the whole number first.
The formula for this is:

Numerator/Denominator) in whole numbers

Using the fraction you entered of 8/40, let's evaluate:

Whole Number = 8 / 40 = 0.2

Whole Number = Integer(0.2)

Whole Number = 0

Find the fractional portion of the mixed number

(Numerator - Denominator x Whole Number)
Denominator

Using the values we entered and calculated, we get:

Fraction Portion  =  (8 - 40 x 0)
  40

Fraction Portion  =  8 - 0
  40

Fraction Portion  =  8
  40

Combine both pieces for the mixed number:

Mixed Number = Whole Number & fraction Portion

Mixed Number = 0 & 8/40

Write this as a whole number

Whole Number = 0


Final Answer

1/5
