No, you cannot use models to multiply fractions!!
2/5
Because most people find it easier to work with fractions involving small numbers rather than equivalent fractions involving large numbers. They would rather use 1/6 than try to work with 261/1566.
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator.
Do you mean what is the abbreviation for millimeter? Because that is "mm". When you write units in fractions, you will probably want to use the abbreviation.
use your pattern to write a rule for equivalent fractions

You can use models by doing simplify
6/8, 3/6, 6/16
equivalentThe fractions were equivalent to each other
A pint is equivalent to 16 fluid ounces. The suspect's account of the crime was equivalent to a confession. When adding fractions, convert them to equivalent fractions with the same denominator.
2/8 and 8/32
2/5
use the slash under backspace
Finding the LCM will make adding and subtracting fractions easier.
You can convert them to equivalent fractions with like denominators, then simply compare the numerators.You might also convert each fraction to a decimal (divide the numerator by the denominator); then you can also compare them.
