Simplifying Fractions and Factors

The video tutorial explains how to multiply two fractions by first simplifying each fraction. It covers simplifying the numerators and denominators of both fractions, identifying common factors, and reducing them. The tutorial then demonstrates the multiplication of the simplified fractions to find the final product, which is 15.

What is the first step in finding the product of two fractions?

• Multiply the numerators and denominators directly.

• Add the fractions together.

• Simplify each fraction first.

• Convert fractions to decimals.

What is the result of simplifying the numerator of the first fraction?

• 9

• 6

• 3

• 12

How is the denominator of the first fraction simplified?

• By dividing by three.

• By multiplying three by itself three times.

• By adding the numbers.

• By subtracting three from itself.
