You just multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the numerator of the second, and the denominator of the first by the denominator of the second. For example, with the two fractions 2/9 and 4/7, you would multiply 2 by 4 to get 8, then 9 by 7 to get 63, so your answer to 2/9 x 4/7 would be 8/63.

If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.
Because to add fractions, the denominators must be equal.
Exactly the same as you do when multiplying fractions with different denominators. -- Multiply numerators . . . the product is the numeratore of the answer. -- Multiply denominators . . . the product is the denominator of the answer.
Multiply them by each other.

Convert unlike fractions to equivalent fractions with common denominators by finding the LCM of the denominators.
Multiply all numerators to get numerator of the product. Multiply all denominators to get denominator of the product. This is true whether the factors have like or unlike denominators.
fractions having same denominators are like fractions & others are unlike fractions

If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators.
Unlike. Unlike. Unlike. Unlike.
If the denominators are not the same, then you have to use equivalent fractions which do have a common denominator . To do this, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two denominators. To add fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator. Then add and simplify.
Like fractions have the same denominators (bottom part of fraction), unlike fractions do not.
