You are painting the outside of 28 foot fence that goes around a square graden there are 4equal sections you have painted 1/2 of one section .what fraction of the job have you completed ?
If there are 4 sections then each section is 1/4. You need to find 1/2 of one section so you will need to multiply 1/2 times 1/4 which equals 0.125 or 1/8.
