What are the rules for multiplying fractions?
When multiplying 2 fractions, we multiply the two numerators together and the two denominators together.
When multiplying fractions do you multlply to the side or cross multiply?
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!
How is multiplying two decimals different from multiplying one decimal by a whole 3?
There is no difference in the procedure.
Why are two fractions converted into like fractions?
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.
What does cross multiplyng mean?
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.

What is an common multiple of the denominators for two or more fractions?
Multiplying the denominators together of two or more unlike fractions will get you a common multiple.

What is the difference between multiplying and dividing two rational expressions?
multiplying rational expressions means multiplying two alg. rxpressions that look like fractions, Just like normal, multiply numerators and multiply denominators then reduce. Division, just like regular fractions means to invert the divisor and the multiply (as above)
How do you add two fractions with a different denominator?
You add two fractions with a different denominator by multiplying the denominators by a number that will make them equal. Be sure to multiply the numerator by that number too.
Can you get Numerator Of The Product Of Two Fractions Is Found By Multiplying The Numerator Of The Two Fractions?
Yes, then do the same for the denominators. But THEN you are usually expected to simplify the resulting fraction.
How do you sum two fractions?
Make the demoninators (bottom numbers) the same by multiplying the top and bottom of one (or both) fractions, then add them as you would with integers.
