A fraction represents a part of a whole and is expressed as $$\frac{a}{b}$$ , where 'a' is the numerator and 'b' is the denominator.

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

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

What is the product of $$\frac{2}{3}$$ and $$\frac{1}{5}$$ ?

$$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{5} = \frac{2 \times 1}{3 \times 5} = \frac{2}{15}$$ .

How can you use a rectangle to model the multiplication of $$\frac{2}{3}$$ and $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ?

Draw a rectangle, divide it into 3 equal parts (for $$\frac{2}{3}$$ ) and then shade 2 parts. Next, divide the same rectangle into 4 equal parts (for $$\frac{3}{4}$$ ) and shade 3 parts. The overlapping shaded area represents the product.

What is the product of $$\frac{4}{5}$$ and $$\frac{3}{6}$$ ?

$$\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{3}{6} = \frac{4 \times 3}{5 \times 6} = \frac{12}{30} = \frac{2}{5}$$ after simplification.

What does it mean to simplify a fraction?

Simplifying a fraction means reducing it to its lowest terms, where the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1.

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

$$\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 1}{2 \times 3} = \frac{1}{6}$$ .

How do you represent $$\frac{2}{5}$$ of $$\frac{3}{4}$$ using a model?

To represent $$\frac{2}{5}$$ of $$\frac{3}{4}$$ , shade $$\frac{2}{5}$$ of a rectangle that is already shaded to represent $$\frac{3}{4}$$ .

What is the product of $$\frac{3}{4}$$ and $$\frac{4}{6}$$ ?

$$\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{4}{6} = \frac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 6} = \frac{12}{24} = \frac{1}{2}$$ after simplification.

What is the importance of understanding models in multiplying fractions?

Understanding models helps visualize the multiplication process, making it easier to grasp how fractions interact and combine.

What is the product of $$\frac{1}{5}$$ and $$\frac{2}{6}$$ ?

$$\frac{1}{5} \times \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1 \times 2}{5 \times 6} = \frac{2}{30} = \frac{1}{15}$$ after simplification.
