Simplify both fractions first.
Next multiply both tops together and that becomes the new top
Now both bottoms to get new bottom
simplify again

EX) $\frac{3}{4} * \frac{5}{6}$ (already simplified)
3*5=15
4*6=24
$\frac{15}{24}$
It cannot simplify again so that is your answer

First step is to either multiply the numerators (top numbers) by each other and the denominators (bottom numers) by each other, and then simplify the fraction, or you can first simplify then multiply. Hope this helped!!!

At the local pet store, zebra fish cost $2.00 each and neon tetras cost $2.15 each. If Ernesto bought 15 fish for a total cost o

bezimeni [28]

So first create and define your variables:
Z = amount of zebra fish
N = amount of neon tetras

Now create your equations:
2z+2.15n=31.20
z+n=15
This is your system. There are multiple methods to use but in this problem I’ll use the substitution method by simplifying the bottom equation.
2z+2.15n=31.20
z=15-n
Now I’ll plug the bottom equation into the top one.
2(15-n)+2.15n=31.20
And just solve from here.
30-2n+2.15n=31.20
0.15n=1.20
n=8
So he bout 8 neon tetras, and 15-8= 7, so he bought 7 zebra fish
