The product of two consecutive integers is 210?
You can solve this in two ways.1) Trial and error. That is, try multiplying two consecutive integers; if the product is too large, try smaller integers; if the product is too small, try larger consecutive integers. 2) Call the two consecutive integers "n" and "n+1", and solve the equation: n(n+1)=210
Multiplying integers with fractions?
Let's say that you were multiplying 10 by 2/5 , you would turn the 10 into 10/1 which is still equal to 10 then you multiply 10/1 and 2/5 by multiplying the numerators (the top numbers) and the denominators (the bottom numbers) 10*2/1*5 = 20/5 = 4
