The way to multiply two fractions is to multiply the numerator by the numerator and the denominator by the denominator, so for example, 2/3 x 4/5 = 2x4/3x5 = 8/15. Or, 1/2 x 2/3 = 1x2/2x3 = 2/6 = 1/3.

What is relationship between numerators and denominators of factors and numerators and denominators of product?

this is a tricky question but the relationship between the numerators of the product is that they both fractions - and for the next question is that in some fraction their is aways going to have the same denominator that never changes or DONT CHANGE AT ALL !


How do you do multiplication fraction questions?

To multiply fractions, you must simply multiply the numerators and denominators. This means, that by multiplying fractions, you are making the fractions smaller. If this does not make sense, then read the following example. Example: Equation: 2 4 _ x _ 3 6 Step 1: Multiply the numerators: 2 x 4 = 8 Step 2: Multiply the Denominators: 3 x 6 = 18 Now you have your answer! 8 _ 18!!!!


When multiplying fractions does the bottom number stay the same?

No. Look at the examples below for an idea. All you so is multiply the numerators and the denominators. Although most schools require you to simplify, some you dont have to. Remember that cross-simplifying can help out! Good luck! <3 Amyrox 7/9 x 4/7 = 28/63 3/6 x 9/2 = 27/12


What do you do when you are dividing a fraction?

When dividing a fraction you leave the first fraction as it is and you change the second fraction into a reciprocal (flip the fraction). Once you have changed the second fraction into a reciprocal, then you would simply *multiply the two fractions together. Once you multiply the two fractions then that would be your final answer. Dont forget to simplify! And remember if the fractions are mixed numbers before you do anything you must change the mixed numbers into improper fractions first! hope this helps! *If you dont know how to multiply fractions then thats a different question

How do you do subtract fractions?

One way you can subtract fractions is to change them into decimals, aligning the decimals vertically, then subtracting like you would with whole numbers, making sure to carry down the decimal. Another way that you can subtract fractions is to use the least common denominator (lcd). First, simplify the fractions. Then find the multiples of the denominators. When you find the multiple included in both lists that is the least, multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number in order to make the denominator into the lcd. Then, subtract the numerators and simplify the answer. Example: 2/3 - 1/2 = 4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6
