Fraction multiplication is the process of multiplying two fractions together
To solve fraction multiplication, follow these steps:
Write down the two fractions you want to multiply. For example, let’s say we want to multiply 3/4 and 2/5.
Multiply the numerators (the top numbers) together. In this case, 3 * 2 = 6.
Multiply the denominators (the bottom numbers) together. In this case, 4 * 5 = 20.
Write down the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators. In this case, the product is 6/20.
Simplify the fraction, if possible. In this case, both 6 and 20 can be divided by 2, resulting in 3/10.
So, the product of 3/4 and 2/5 is 3/10.
2/3 * 4/5
= (2 * 4) / (3 * 5)
= 8/15
1/2 * 3/4
= (1 * 3) / (2 * 4)
= 3/8
5/6 * 2/7
= (5 * 2) / (6 * 7)
= 10/42
= 5/21
