Let me post a similar question and answer it.

Question: There is 1/4 gallon of water in a 4-gallon container. What fraction of the container is full?

Answer:

1/16

Explanation:

To determine the fraction of the 4-gallon container that is full, we'll need to divide 1/4 by 4;

[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{4}=\frac{1}{4}\ast\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

So the fraction of the container that is full is 1/16.
