It is not: they are the same. A "product" and "multiple" are synonyms.

What is the general rule for multiplying fractions?
The product of two fractions is equal to the two numerators multiplied together divided by the two denominators multiplied together. (a/x) * (b/y) = (a * b) / (x * y)
When will the quotient of two fractions less than 1 be greater than either fraction?
Yes. Consider two negative fractions. Since they are negative, both are less than 1. But their product is positive and so greater than either.
When a factor is multiplied by a factor the answer is a?
A product.
What two numbers multiplied make 31?
31 is a prime number so it can not be a product of two integers. Of course it can be a product of two fractions or a fraction and an integer such as 15.5 * 2 or ((15 and 1/2) times 2) .Another Answer:-The numbers are: 1*31 = 31
Product of an integer multiplied by itself?
perfect square
When two fractions less than one are multiplied the product is sometimes greater than 1?
Certainly. -31/2 and -41/2 are both less than 1 and their product is 15.75
Is the product of two proper fractions greater than the fractions being multipled?
No, it is not.
When you multiply two fractions why is the product greater than 1?
The product is not always greater than 1.
Who do fractions get smaller when you multiply them by another fraction?
It depends on what type of fraction it is. If the fractions are improper fractions, the product will be greater than the two fractions multiplied together. (Ex: 3/2 x 5/4 = 15/6 or 5/2. 5/2 is greater than 3/2.) If the fractions both have 1 as a numerator, the product is smaller. (Ex: 1/3 x 1/6 = 1/18. 1/18 is less than 1/3.) Any other fractions, it would depend on what fractions you're multiplying. Remember, you are multiplying the numerator by the other numerator and the denominator by the other denominator. (Answer Product of numerators/Product of denominators)
When is the product of two fractions greater than its factors?
That only happens if they're both improper fractions, i.e. greater than ' 1 '.
What is the general rule for multiplying fractions?

When you multiply fractions by fractions what do you do to the numerators?
they are also multiplied. When multiplying fractions: (N1/D1) x (N2/D2). The new product is (N1 x N2) / (D1 x D2).
Which fraction when multiplied by 25 will result in a product that is greater than25?
26/1000
When one factor in multiplication is greater than one is the product greater or less than the other factor?
The terms (factors) used in multiplication are the multiplicand (the factor being multiplied), the multiplier (the factor that the multiplicand is multiplied by) and the product (the answer, or results of the multiplication). Any time either of the factors is greater than the other by at least one, the product will always be greater than the largest factor.
When will the quotient of two fractions less than 1 be greater than either fraction?
Yes. Consider two negative fractions. Since they are negative, both are less than 1. But their product is positive and so greater than either.
Which product is greater 35.34 times 6.4 or 35.47 times 6.4?
35.47 is greater than 35.34 and since they are both being multiplied by the same positive number, 35.47*6.4 is greater.
When is a product of a negative integer and positive integer less than both of its factors?
When its multiplied by anything greater than one
