Beth had 1/4 box of candy she ate 1/2 of the candy what fraction of the box did she have left

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

If she already had 1/4 of the box left, you just have to split 1/4 in half.

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

If Beth had 1/4 a box of candy, and she ate 1/2 of the remaining candy, she would have 1/8 because the equation is calling for you to multiply 1/4 by 1/2 or divide 1/4 by 2. To multiply two fractions, you multiply straight across. When you do so, 1x1 equals 1 and 4x2 equals 8, leaving you with an answer of 1/8!
