When multiplying 2 fractions, we multiply the two numerators together and the two denominators together.
In multiplication and division of fractions, both involve multiplication. This is their similarity. In multiplication of fractions, multiply the numerator by the numerator of the other fraction and the denominator by the denominator of the other fraction. Example: 1/2 * 2/3 = 2/6 In division of fractions, reciprocate the divisor then follow the step in multiplying fractions. Example: 1/2 ÷ 2/3 = 1/2 * 3/2 = 3/4
if you have mixed numbers you make them into improper fractions before you multiply
No, you do not.
No.
step by step
definition of multiplying fractions?
Multiplying fractions is all about division
Step 1 Make the whole number a fraction by making it ?/1 Step 2 Make the mixed number a improper fraction by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and then adding the numerator and putting that on top of the original denominator. Step 3 SOLVE using basic multiplying fractions rules Step 4 SIMPLIFY
Fractions and decimals are usually rational numbers. Besides, multiplying rational and irrational numbers is also similar.

It is similar because when you divide fractions you are technically multiplying the second number's reciprocal. (Turning the fraction the other way around)
