To multiply two fractions, the numerator (top part) of the result is the product of the numerators, and the denominator (bottom part) of the result is the product of the denominators. There is no need to convert to a common denominator first; this is only necessary to add, subtract, or compare fractions.
For example, 1/2 x 5/7 = (1x5) / (2x7) = 5/14.
Note that it is easier to do any simplifications BEFORE doing the actual multiplication.
Similar fractions have the same denominator, dissimilar ones don't.
Fractions that are not equivalent are dissimilar fractions * * * * * The term is used more commonly to refer to fractions whose denominators are different.
The first step is to find the lowest common denominator of the fractions.
No, you cannot use models to multiply fractions!!
Same as for adding: If the denominators are not equal, you must first find a common denominator, then convert both fractions to that common denominator.
Similar fractions have the same denominator, dissimilar ones don't.

multiply and divide fractions!-.-

You multiply the fractions
When you add or subtract fractions you cross multiply and when you multiply or divide fractions you across multiply.
Yes you do.
Same as for adding: If the denominators are not equal, you must first find a common denominator, then convert both fractions to that common denominator.
When you divide by fractions, you invert and multiply.
yes. you multiply the numerator and denominator
