Answer 2

Hello there! :)

To multiply fractions, we do the following:

• We multiply the numerator of one fraction by the numerator of the other one.
• We multiply the denominator of one fraction by the denominator of the other one.
• Simplify if necessary.

Here's an example:

$\frac{3}{4} *\frac{5}{6}$

Step number one: multiply 3 times 5

15

4*6=24

$\frac{15}{24}$

The answer can be reduced. Divide both the top and the bottom by 3:

$\frac{3}{8}$

Therefore, that's the answer. Hope it helps! :)
