Compare simplifying before multiplying fractions with simplifying after multiplying the fractions
Kipish [7]
<span>We will start using a new way to indicate simplifying fractions. When a numerator or 
a denominator gets simplified, we will cross it out with a slash and write the new 
numerator or denominator next to it (either above it or below it).</span><span>The number you divide by (the 4) does not get indicated in any way! You only 
think about it in your mind: “I divide 12 by 4, and get 3. I divide 20 by 4, and get 5.”</span><span>You may not see any advantage over the “old” method yet, but this shortcut will 
come in handy soon.</span> <span />
