8/3 x 9/5
To multiply Improper frtactions is the same as mulktipoliying proper fractions.
In all cases , look to cancekl down.; smaller number make the calculation easier.
In the above case cancel down (reduce) by '3'
Hence
8/1 X 3/5
Multiply the numerators(top) together, and separately the denominators(bottom) together.
Hence
24/5
Reduce to a mixed fraction
24 / 5 = 4 4/5

ViviMultiplying improper fractions is just like multiplying proper fractions. You multiply the numerators (top number) of each fraction to come up with the numerator of the answer. The you multiply the denominators (bottom number) of both numbers to get the denominator of the answer.
EX: 8/3 X 9/5= 72/15 or 24/5 (reduced)
The next step in the equation is taking the improper fraction and converting it to a mixed number. You do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator. The whole number of the quotient becomes the whole number in the fraction, and the remainder becomes the numerator, which is over the denominator of the improper fraction
EX: 24/5= 4 and 4/5; 24 divided by 5 = 4 with a remainder of 4.
you just multiply as you would an number

How do you cross multiply fractions?
write two fractions beside each other,and start at the top right multiply that to the bottom left,and write the answer above it,and multiply the top left to the bottom right,and write the answer above the fraction.
How do you multiply 3 fractions together?
The numerator of the product is the product of the three numerators and the denominator of the product is the product of the three denominators.So, for example, (a/b)*(c/d)*(e/f) = (a*c*e)/(b*d*f)
How do you find the median in fractions?
use lmc
How do you construct a pie chart?
Ok, first you take whatever numbers you're using and put them into fractions of a whole. After that, turn the fractions into percentages by dividing. Next, make a circle and take the fractions and make them into parts of the whole circle. The measurements usually do not need to be perfect.
How can you simplify a ratio?
Find a common number that you can divide both by, just like simplifying fractions. Say you have a ratio of 2:4. Both of those numbers are divisible by two, so if you divide both by two you get 1:2. Generally you want to have both numbers as whole numbers (i.e. no fractions or decimals) Find the GCF of the numbers and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the ratio is in its simplest form. If the ratio is between two decimals, multiply them by whatever power of ten will eliminate the decimals. Then proceed with the GCF.
