What is the product of two fractions?

Back

To find the product of two fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For example, \( \frac{a}{b} \times \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \times c}{b \times d} \).

How do you simplify a fraction?

Back

To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). For example, \( \frac{14}{6} \) can be simplified to \( \frac{7}{3} \).

Can you multiply a fraction by a whole number?

Back

Yes, you can multiply a fraction by a whole number by treating the whole number as a fraction with a denominator of 1. For example, \( 3 \times \frac{2}{5} = \frac{3 \times 2}{1 \times 5} = \frac{6}{5} \).
