Answer:0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we start by labeling 1/2 of 7/8 like this:

N1/D1 of N2/D2

Then we use this fraction of a fraction formula to solve the problem:

(N1 x N2) / (D1 x D2)

When we enter 1/2 of 7/8 into the formula, we get:

(1 x 7) / (2 x 8) = 7/16

Therefore, the answer to 1/2 of 7/8 in its lowest form is:

1/2 of 7/8 = 7/16
