-- Multiply their numerators to get the numerator of their product.
-- Multiply their denominators to get the denominator of their product.
When multiplying 2 fractions, we multiply the two numerators together and the two denominators together.
definition of multiplying fractions?
Multiplying fractions is the easiest operation you can do with them. Nothing complicated is required, just multiply the top two and the bottom two. Simple as that!
Multiplying the denominators together of two or more unlike fractions will get you a common multiple.
Fractions and decimals are usually rational numbers. Besides, multiplying rational and irrational numbers is also similar.
step by step
Because you can't add or subtract fractions that have different denominators. Making them like fractions, by multiplying so the denominators are the same, you can add and/or subtract them.
Cross-multiplying is when you have two fractions, and you multiply the numerator of each fraction by the other fractions's denominator. In other words, if you have two fractions a/b and c/d, cross-multiplying would be finding a*d and b*c. If a/b=c/d, then ad = bc.
if you have mixed numbers you make them into improper fractions before you multiply
ny multiplying
No.
if you mean multiplying something by a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator then yes.
