this is a tricky question but the relationship between the numerators of the product is that they both fractions - and for the next question is that in some fraction their is aways going to have the same denominator that never changes or DONT CHANGE AT ALL !
The relationship between the factors and the product is that they are both fractions.
-- Multiply their numerators to get the numerator of their product. -- Multiply their denominators to get the denominator of their product.
Numerator of answer = product of numerators. Denominator of answer = product of denominator. So a/b * c/d = (a*c)/(b*d)
First, unmix the numbers ((denominator times whole number plus numerator) over denominator). Then multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. The numerator of the product is the product of the numerators of all of the multiplicands, and the denominator of the product is the product of the denominators of all of the multiplicands. Third, simplify.
3/40 and 5/24
You pretty much already answered your own question: the numerators of the factors are the factors of the numerator of the produce while the dividends of the factors are the factors of the dividend.
No. Fractions don't need the same denominator in order to multiply them. The numerator of their product is simply the product of their numerators, and the denominator of their product is just the product of their denominators.
( A/B ) x ( C/D ) = ( A x C )/( B x D ) -- The numerator of the product is the product of the numerators. -- The denominator of the product is the product of the denominators.
-- The numerator of the product is the product of the numerators. -- The denominator of the product is the product of the denominators. -- The product is 35/48 , reduced or simplified if necessary and appropriate.
Exactly the same as you do when multiplying fractions with different denominators. -- Multiply numerators . . . the product is the numeratore of the answer. -- Multiply denominators . . . the product is the denominator of the answer.
First, multiply the numerators and write the product of the numerators above a fraction bar. Next, multiply the denominators and write that product underneath the fraction bar. You don't have to find a common denominator. You do, however, have to reduce your answer to simplest terms.
