Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find out how many 1/8 cups go into 1/4 cups so you 1/4 divided by 1/8.

When dividing fractions you flip the second fraction and change the operation from a division to a multiplication so.......

It will be 1/4 x 8/1

This will give you 8/4

8 divide by 4 is 2

So......

Carter has to fill the 1/8 cup twice to get how much he needs


Hope this helps!
