When you multiply a denominator do you multiplicate the numerator?
That depends what you want to do. If you multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, you get another fraction that stands for the same number - an equivalent fraction. For example, if you have the fraction 1/2, you multiply top and bottom by 2, to get 2/4. 2/4 is simply another name for 1/2.
What is an example for when you multiply a fraction less than 1 by another fraction less than 1?
(1/2) * (1/4) is an example.
Is a negative fraction subtracted from another negative fraction always negative?
No. (-1/3) - (-2/3) = + 1/3
How do you didvide a fraction by a fraction?
To divide a fraction by another fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal - that is, in the second fraction you exchange numerator and denominator, while at the same time changing the division to a multiplication.Example: 5 divided by one-and-a-half5 / (1 1/2) = 5 / (3/2) = 5 x (2/3)To divide a fraction by another fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal - that is, in the second fraction you exchange numerator and denominator, while at the same time changing the division to a multiplication.Example: 5 divided by one-and-a-half5 / (1 1/2) = 5 / (3/2) = 5 x (2/3)To divide a fraction by another fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal - that is, in the second fraction you exchange numerator and denominator, while at the same time changing the division to a multiplication.Example: 5 divided by one-and-a-half5 / (1 1/2) = 5 / (3/2) = 5 x (2/3)To divide a fraction by another fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal - that is, in the second fraction you exchange numerator and denominator, while at the same time changing the division to a multiplication.Example: 5 divided by one-and-a-half5 / (1 1/2) = 5 / (3/2) = 5 x (2/3)
