What is one step when multiplying fractions?
Multiplication of fractions is similar to multiplication of whole numbers. Often, multiplication of fractions can be made easier by first performing cancellation. Cancellation involves dividing both a numerator and a denominator by the same number. This is the same as dividing a fraction by one, and so it does not alter the answer. When cancelling, cross out the old terms and write in the new terms.
Does cross-cancellation always reduce two fractions?
No, it is quite possible for the fractions not to have common factors, even if you cross-cancel.
What is the difference between cross and across?
When you add or subtract fractions you cross multiply and when you multiply or divide fractions you across multiply.
