When multiplying fractions we multiply all the numerators to produce a new numerator and we multiply all the denominators to produce a new denominator, then we reduce the new fraction to its simplest form.
In this case - 7/8 x 2/5 gives 7 x 2 = 14 as the new numerator and 8 x 5 = 40 as the new denominator
The "new" fraction is now 14/40 or 7/20
