When you multiply a fraction less than one by another fraction less than one your answer is always less than either factor?

That is true.


When you multiply by 0 the product is always?

The product would always be 0.


When multiplying fraction by fraction the product will always be?

The only generalisation posible is that it will always be a rational number. The product can be positive or negative; it can be a fraction or an integer, it can be larger or smaller.


What is the product of two numbers that are reciprocals of one another explain why this is always the case?

A fraction multiplied by its reciprocal is always equal to one. This is because the reciprocal is an inversion of the fraction. The denominator of a fraction is the same number as the numerator of the reciprocal, and vice versa. The product of this is a fraction with the same numbers for the denominator and reciprocal, which is also known as an equivalent fraction. Equivalent fractions are always equal to one.


When you multiply any number of even numbers will the product always be odd?

No, the product will always be even.

What is a conjecture for multiplying two odd numbers?

One possible conjecture: The product is always an odd number. Another possible conjecture: The product is always greater than either of them. Another possible conjecture: Both odd numbers are always factors of the product. Another possible conjecture: The product is never a multiple of ' 2 '. Another possible conjecture: The product is always a real, rational number. Another possible conjecture: The product is always an integer.


When you multiply a fraction less than 1 by another fraction less than 1 is your answer going to be less than one?

Yes, ALWAYS. Think of it this way... If you had 1/2 a pie and you wanted just a FRACTION of it, that's less than the 1/2 you started with.


Is the product of two positive integers always positive?

No the product of two integers will not always be a positive, because if you multiply a positive and a negative you'll get a negative.
