What is the process to multiply fractions?

Back

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For example, (2/3) * (3/4) = (2*3)/(3*4) = 6/12 = 1/2.

What is the least common denominator (LCD)?

Back

The least common denominator is the smallest number that can be a common denominator for two or more fractions. It is used to add or subtract fractions with different denominators.

Front

How do you find the least common multiple (LCM)?

Back

To find the least common multiple, list the multiples of each number and find the smallest multiple that appears in both lists.

Front

What is the relationship between multiplication and division of fractions?

Back

Multiplication of fractions is used to find a part of a whole, while division of fractions is used to determine how many times one fraction fits into another.
