How do you know when a pair of fractions have the same product?
For example, you can do the multiplication in both cases, simplify each product to simplest terms, and compare. Or, after doing the multiplication, check the product of the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of another fraction - if you get the same product both ways, the products are equivalent.
