It means that the idea of multiplication is extended to fractions. For example: the area of a rectangle is defined as length x width; but the length and width may well be fractional numbers of a measurement, for example length = 5/3 meter and width = 1/2 meter. In this case, you must multiply the fractions for length x width to get the area (in square meters).
The multiplication of fractions is defined in such as way that many important properties of multiplication, known for integers, remain valid when you multiply fractions.
