Answer 2

Answer:

How to multiply fractions:

1) Multiplying fractions is the same thing as multiplying while numbers

2) To multiply fractions, you have to multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator

3) If you need to reduce to the simplest form, you just have to divide the numerator and denominator by the same number until the fraction cannot be divided anymore

Ex. $\frac{5}{10}$ x $\frac{6}{10}$ = $\frac{30}{100}$ = $\frac{3}{10}$
