To multiply fractions, you first want to multiply the numerators "top numbers" together. Then you want to multiply across the denominator "bottom numbers."
For example, let's say we have × .
First, we will multiply the numerators together. 1 × 3 = 3
Next, we will multiply the denominators together. 2 × 7 = 14
It's easier then you'd expect it to be. There's no need to convert the fractions so that they all have a common denominator like you'd have to do when adding or subtracting fractions.
Let's take a look at something really simple.
We can multiply the numerators together so 1*2. We can multiply 4*6 to get the denominator.
This means that our fraction becomes .
Now I'm assuming since you already know how to add fractions you'll know how to simply fractions. So 2/24 will become 1/12.
