Tyler made a pan of cornbread. He cut it into 8 equal pieces and ate 1 piece. what fraction of that corn bread did Tyler eat?

The whole amount is 8, so that goes in the denominator (The bottom) He ate 1 of them, and so it is asking what fraction did he eat? Since he ate 1, you would put that on the numerator (top) So the answer is 1/8.
