The only generalisation posible is that it will always be a rational number. The product can be positive or negative; it can be a fraction or an integer, it can be larger or smaller.
The only thing that you can be certain of is that the answer will be a number. It could be irrational or rational, it could be a proper fraction, integer or improper (mixed) fraction.
The answer is called the product.
We call that cross multiplying.
The product of a proper fraction and a whole number results in a smaller number than the whole number, maintaining the same basic numerical relationship as multiplying two proper fractions, which also yields a smaller number. However, the key difference lies in the nature of the multiplicands; a whole number has a value greater than or equal to one, while a proper fraction is always less than one. Consequently, when multiplying a proper fraction by a whole number, the result is a proper fraction or whole number, whereas the product of two proper fractions will always be a proper fraction.
The product of two positive proper fractions is always a positive proper fraction. A proper fraction is defined as a fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator. Therefore, when multiplying two fractions, the result will have a numerator smaller than the denominator, maintaining its status as a proper fraction.

Changing a whole number to a fraction does not change the product when multiplying by that number. For example, the whole number 3 can be expressed as the fraction 3/1, and multiplying by either form yields the same result. Thus, the product remains unchanged regardless of whether you use the whole number or its fractional equivalent.
The product is always positive.
Yes. A polynomial multiplying by a polynomial will always have a multi-termed product. Hope this helps!
That is correct. It is easier to simplify the fraction before multiplying all the factors in the numerator and the denominator.That is correct.

When multiplying decimals less than 1, the answer gets smaller because each decimal is less than 1. Multiplying a number by a value less than 1 will always result in a smaller product. Think of it as taking a fraction or a portion of the number, which will inevitably make the product smaller.
To answer this question, we can consider the range of possible values for the product. A mixed number between 4 and 5 can be written as a number greater than or equal to 4 but less than 5. When multiplied by a fraction between 0 and 1, the product will always be less than the original mixed number. This is because multiplying by a fraction less than 1 will always result in a smaller value. Therefore, the product of a mixed number between 4 and 5 and a fraction between 0 and 1 will always be less than 4.
