What is the product of $$\frac{1}{2}$$ and $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ?

$$\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8}$$ .

What is the reciprocal of a fraction?

What is the product of a fraction and a whole number?

To multiply a fraction by a whole number, multiply the numerator by the whole number and keep the same denominator. For example, $$\frac{2}{3} \times 3 = \frac{6}{3} = 2$$ .

What is $$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{7}$$ ?

$$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{7} = \frac{6}{21}$$ , which simplifies to $$\frac{2}{7}$$ .

What is the result of $$\frac{4}{5} \times 3$$ ?

$$\frac{4}{5} \times 3 = \frac{12}{5} = 2 \frac{2}{5}$$ .

How do you add fractions with different denominators?

To add fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator, convert the fractions, and then add the numerators.

What is the least common multiple (LCM)?

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest multiple that two or more numbers share. It is used to find a common denominator for adding fractions.

What is $$\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{4}{5}$$ ?

$$\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{4}{5} = \frac{12}{40} = \frac{3}{10}$$ after simplification.

What is the difference between a proper fraction and an improper fraction?

A proper fraction has a numerator smaller than the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ), while an improper fraction has a numerator greater than or equal to the denominator (e.g., $$\frac{5}{4}$$ ).
