The simplest form of the product between fractions is 1/12.
How to simplify the product?
Here we have the product between two fractions, first, remember how it works.
(a/b)x(c/d) = (a*c)/(b*d)
So we multiply the numerators and the denominators together.
Here we have:
5/12 x 1/5
Using that rule, we will get:
(5*1)/(12*5) = 5/60
Now we can divide both numerator and denominator by 5 to simplify the fraction, we will get:
5/5 = 1
60/5 = 12
Then:
5/60 = 1/12
