What do you do when you mutpiling fractions with common dennmonters?
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.
When multiplying fractions do you multiply the denominator?
When multiplying fractions you multiply the numerator to the numerator and the denominator to the denominator. For example: 2/3 x 4/5 = 2x4/3x5
Do you need a common denominator to divide fractions?
No. Dividing fractions is achieved by inverting the divisor and multiplying the resulting fractions. To multiply fractions the numerators are multiplied together to form the new numerator and the denominators are multiplied together to form the new denominator.
Can you multiply fractions that have a different demonminator?
Yes. When multiplying and dividing fractions your denominators do not have to be the same. The denominators only haveto be the same if you are subtracting or adding them.
How is dividing fractions different from multiplying fractions?
(3/4) x (5/9) = (3x5)/(4x9) = 15/36, that is when you multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators and form the numerator of the result and multiply the denominators and form the denominator of the result (3/4) / (5/9) = (3/4) x (9/5) = 27/20, that is when you divide fractions, you first invert the fraction by which you are dividing and then multiply the numerators and form the numerator of the result and multiply the denominators and form the denominator of the result
What do you do when you mutpiling fractions with common dennmonters?
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.
When you multiply fractions why do you multiply the fractions strait across?
This has the effect of producing a denominator in the answer that has each of the original denominators as factors. You don't have to worry about simplifying the fractions before multiplying. Of course, you may have to simplify after multiplying. There's no way out.
How do you add two fractions with a different denominator?
You add two fractions with a different denominator by multiplying the denominators by a number that will make them equal. Be sure to multiply the numerator by that number too.
What is the rule for multiplying fractions with like denamonators?
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.
When multiplying fractions do you multiply the denominator?
When multiplying fractions you multiply the numerator to the numerator and the denominator to the denominator. For example: 2/3 x 4/5 = 2x4/3x5
Do you need common denomonators when mutiplying fractions?
No, you do not need to find a common denominator when multiplying fractions. To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. However, finding a common denominator can be helpful when simplifying the resulting fraction.
Do you need a common denominator to divide fractions?
No. Dividing fractions is achieved by inverting the divisor and multiplying the resulting fractions. To multiply fractions the numerators are multiplied together to form the new numerator and the denominators are multiplied together to form the new denominator.
What are the rules for multiplying fractions?
When multiplying 2 fractions, we multiply the two numerators together and the two denominators together.
Why don't you have to find a common denominator when multiplying fractions?
Multiplying fractions is quite different from adding them. You just multiply the numberators and the denominators separately. You can find the common denominator if you like, but in the end (after simplifying), you'll get the same result, and the additional work of finding the common denominator and converting the fractions turns out to be unnecessary. Try it out for some fractions!
When multiplying fractions you must multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together?
true
How do you muliply fractions?
-- Multiply their numerators to get the numerator of their product. -- Multiply their denominators to get the denominator of their product.
Do you have to change the denominators when multiplying fractions?
No. To multiple fractions multiple the numerators together and multiply the denominators together and simplify (by dividing both numerator and denominator of the result by common factors until the only common factor is 1). The denominators only need to be the same when adding or subtracting fractions.
