Editor's Notes
- Today we are going to learn how to multiply fractions. Here are some fraction multiplication problems. Can you tell how to multiply fractions from these examples? If you were thinking that all you had to do is multiply the both numerators then mutliply both demonators, you are correct well done. Now lets practice using our strategy.
- Today we are going to learn how to multiply fractions. Here are some fraction multiplication problems. Can you tell how to multiply fractions from these examples? If you were thinking that all you had to do is multiply the both numerators then mutliply both demonators, you are correct well done. Now lets practice using our strategy.
- Here is our first problem. 1/5 x 7/12.
- When you multiply 2 fractions, simply multiply the numberators. Then multiply the denominators.
- 1 x 7 = 7 and 5 x 12 = 60. our final answer is 7/60
- Here is our next problem. 4/5 x 4/12.
- Again – read above
- 4 x 4 = 16 and 5 x 12 = 60. 16/60. Do you think this is our final answer?
- If you said no, you are correct. Remember we always simplify our answers.
- Our now simplified answer is 4/15
- Last 3 questions. Remember to simplify your answer.
- Today we learned one strategy on how to mutliply fractions which was When you multiply 2 fractions, simply multiply the numerators. Then multiply the denominators and always simplify your answer. Tomorrow we will learn another strategy when multiply fractions.
