Best Answer

To multiply fractions, you must simply multiply the numerators and denominators. This means, that by multiplying fractions, you are making the fractions smaller. If this does not make sense, then read the following example. Example: Equation: 2 4 _ x _ 3 6 Step 1: Multiply the numerators: 2 x 4 = 8 Step 2: Multiply the Denominators: 3 x 6 = 18 Now you have your answer! 8 _ 18!!!!

Multiply the denominator by the big number on the right, then divide by the numerator. Put the value you get over the original denominator. Once you've dont that, divide the new numerator by the original denominator and there you go!
