The answer is called the product.
What does it mean to multiply a fraction?
You are just multiPlying the top two number then the bottom two numbers
When dividing by a fraction can you multiply by its reciprocal?
That is correct. To divide by a half, you are actually multiplying by two. ■
Why Can you multiply the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number to write an equivalent fraction?
Because a fraction is represented by the ratio of the two numbers and multiplying both by the same number does not change their ratio.
What is a fraction equal to two thirds with a denominator of 9?
6/9 (found by multiplying the 2 and 3 by 3)

How is the process used to multiply a fraction and a whole number similar to the process used to multiply two whole numbers to multiply two?
Multiplying a fraction by a whole number involves the same fundamental principle as multiplying two whole numbers: repeated addition. When you multiply a whole number by a fraction, you can think of the fraction as representing a part of the whole, and the whole number indicates how many times to take that part. Similarly, multiplying two whole numbers involves adding one number to itself repeatedly based on the value of the other number. Both processes ultimately rely on combining equal groups.
What statement about multiplying fractions and mixed numbers is not true?
A common misconception is that multiplying fractions always results in a smaller number. While it is true that multiplying two proper fractions (less than one) results in a smaller fraction, multiplying a fraction by a mixed number can yield a larger product if the mixed number is greater than one. Therefore, the statement "Multiplying fractions always results in a smaller number" is not true.
Is the fraction 1-10 equivalent fractions?
11
What is two fifteenths divided by two thirteenths?
Dividing a number by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In this instance, 2/15 / 2/13 = 2/15 x 13/2. Multiplying the numerators and denominators together and cancelling the fraction down to its simplest terms gives 13/15 or thirteen fifteenths.
Why isn't 5-5 not equivalent fraction?
