Best Answer

1/3 x 1/2 = 1/6

When you are manipulating fractions like this the important thing to remember is what you do to the top you have to do to the bottom as well.

When you take a 1/3 of a 1/2 you have to multiply them together.

So 1*1=1 and 2*3 = 6

so a third of a half is a sixth 1/6. You can use the method for any fractions - get some apples and play around, it's easier to learn with visual aids!
