Can someone explain how you do multiple for fractions with simplify step by step please? I don’t really understand it that well

Here you go!:D

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets use the example ⅔x¾

Multiply both numerators(the top numbers) first.

2×3=6

Then, multiply the denominators (the bottom numbers)

3×4=12

Put them together.

6/12

And then simplify!(divide by 2 until you cant divide it anymore)

6÷2=3

12÷2=4

3/4 would be the answer.

you can do this method even if the denominators are the same.

Now to multiply fractions with a whole number, I would do this:

Let's say you have to multiply 5 ⅘x⅞

You would want to change the whole number and fraction into a mixed number. (Do this by multiplying the whole number with the denominator and adding that answer with the numerator)

5×5=25+4=29

29/5

Now, just do the same thing as before, multiply both the tops and the bottoms!

29×7=203

5×8=40

203/40(make this into a whole number with a fraction)

203/40= 5 3/40

since we can't simplify that because its at its lowest, your done!

Hope this helps, if there's anything you want me to explain more thoroughly go ahead and ask!:]
