To multiply two fractions, you multiply the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator.
For example, 1/2 × 1/2 would be (1×1)/(2×2) = 1/4.
Another example: 2/3 × 1/4 = (2×1)/(3×4) = 2/12 = 1/6
I hope this helps. :)
Answer:
this is a bit tough at first
Explanation:
when you first start to multiply fractions it can be tough to explain so let me give you an example.
[tex]\frac{4}{9}*\frac{16}{17}[/tex]
The simplest method is to multiply the two top numbers together, than multiply the two bottom numbers together.
[tex]\frac{4}{9}*\frac{16}{17}=\frac{4*16}{17*9}= \frac{64}{153}[/tex]
Than simplify the fraction if necessary.
If you still don't understand I revise the question to your needs.
