Question

What are the steps to multiplying a fraction by a fraction

Answer 1

Explanation:

so for example lets say the fractions are 1/4 and 2/3

you would multiply them to make the eqution look like this-
`(1)/(4)`·
`(2)/(3)`

so then you would cross simplify, since 2 is a factor of 4 we will factor them out, so itll look like this=

`(1)/(2)`·
`(1)/(3)`

then you multiply the denominator with denominato and numerator with numerator, so the answer is 1/6

Answer 2

Hello There!

To multiply fractions, you first want to line up the numerator and the denominator together so they line up with each other.

Next, you want to multiply across. This includes multiplying the numerators together and then multiplying the denominators together.

Finally, you want to find the greatest common factor but only if the fraction can be simplified.
