What is 2/8 times 1/7 show step by step explanation

2/8 *1/7

Multiply the numerators together.

(2)(1)=2

Multiply the denominators together.

(8)(7)=56

2/56 - reduce

divide by 2 for the numerator and denominator

2/2=1

56/2=28

2/8 *1/7= 1/28 ( Answer)

1/28

Step-by-step explanation:

Alrighty, so you start off with 2/8 x 1/7, you just have to multiply across (2x1 (numerator) and 8x7 (denominator) and you will get 2/56.

Now, you have to simplify this fraction. The number 2 goes into both the numerator and denominator, so, divide 2 by 2 (1) and 56 divided by 2 (28).

Your answer should be 1/28.

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
