Suzanne say: well,
1/8 * 5/6 * 4/5 = 1/8 * 5 * 1/6 * 4 * 1/5
= 1/8 * 1/6 * 4 * (5 * 1/5)
= 1/8 * 1/6 * 4 * 1
= 1/(2 * 4) * 1/6 * 4
= 1/2 * 1/4 * 1/6 * 4
= 1/2 * 1/6 * 4 * 1/4
= 1/(2 * 6) * 1
= 1/12

Paul say: 1/8 times 5/6 = (1*5)/(8*6) = 5/48
5/48 times 4/5 = (5/48) * (4/5) = 20/240
20 = 5*4 = 5*2^2
240 = 12*2*10 = 3*4*2*2*5 =3*2*2*2*2*5 = 5*3*2^4
They have 5*4 in common so dividing top and bottom by 20.
20/240 simplifies to 1/12

Michael say: Well,
1/8 * 5/6 * 4/5 = 1/8 * 5 * 1/6 * 4 * 1/5
= 1/8 * 1/6 * 4 * (5 * 1/5)
= 1/8 * 1/6 * 4 * 1
= 1/(2 * 4) * 1/6 * 4
= 1/2 * 1/4 * 1/6 * 4
= 1/2 * 1/6 * 4 * 1/4
= 1/(2 * 6) * 1
= 1/12
