If Ginger evenly shares 3/4 of a pizza with 8 people, each person would get 1/4 of the pizza.
To find out how big of a slice each person gets, we need to divide 3/4 of the pizza equally among 8 people.
To divide a fraction, we multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator.
In this case, we have 3/4 * 1/8:
3/4 * 1/8 = 3/32
Therefore, each person gets 3/32 of the pizza.
