Mrs. Hanson has 2 pies for a party. She calculates that if she splits the pies evenly among the guests, they will each receive 1/8 of a pie. How many guests are there?
The answer is actually 16, half of 32 1/8 x 1/2 = 2/16 divided by 2/2 = 1/8 but since you don't need to simplify only use the denominator of 2/16 or only need to multiply 8 and 2.
