Answer:

b/4

Step-by-step explanation:

After rewriting the quotient as a fraction,

[tex]\dfrac{2ab}{8a}[/tex]

We can look for common factors to reduce it. 8a and 2a both have the common factor 2a, and since 2a = 1 · 2a and 8a = 4 · 2a, we can reduce our fraction down to

[tex]\dfrac{1\cdot2a\cdot b}{4\cdot2a}=\dfrac{1\cdot b}{4}=b/4[/tex]
