How do you do to find a missing number on an equivalent fraction?
An equivalent fraction is just a multiple of the one that you have (i.e it is the one that you have, scaled up or down). So multiply the fraction that you have until either the numerator or the denominator match the given numerator/denominator of the fraction with the missing number. The number in the corresponding place on the fraction that you multiplied is the missing number.

Then multiply the two fractions (straight across). Finally put you final answer in simplest form if needed.
