Answer 1

1/16 students in ricks class watched and recorded a reality TV show.

Explanation:

One evening 2/3 of the students in ricks class watched television.

Of those students 3/8 watched a reality show.

So,
`(3)/(8) of (2)/(3)` watced reality shows.

This becomes:
`(3)/(8) * (2)/(3)` =
`(1)/(4)`

Now, of 1/4 students, 1/4 recorded the show.

So, this becomes =
`(1)/(16)`

Therefore, 1/16 students in ricks class watched and recorded a reality TV show.
