Given: 8 friends ate (5/8)TH fraction of a bag of chips.

And Each one ate the same fraction.

Then; The fraction of chips consumed by one person is (1/8)TH of (5/8)

i.e. =

[tex] \frac{1}{8} ( \frac{5}{8} ) \\ = \frac{5}{64} [/tex]

Hope it helps...

Answer:

Option B. [tex]\frac{5}{64}[/tex] of the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eight friends ate [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of a bag of chips in the same amount.

We have to find the quantity that each person ate the chips.

Each friend ate = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] ÷ 8

                          = [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

                          = [tex]\frac{5}{64}[/tex]

Therefore, each friend ate [tex]\frac{5}{64}[/tex] of the bag of chips.

Option B is the answer.
