Question

how do you multiply a fraction

Answer 1

Answer:

Any number x numerator

Explanation:

Before you multiply you need to know the numerator is on top and the denominator is on the bottom. Now, for example; there is a problem as 3 x 6/9 you would work it out as individuals. First, you would multiply the 3 and 6 which is 18. After that, you would keep it as a fraction. As the fraction would be 18/9 but the numerator is bigger than the denominator. If that occurs then you would divide so how many times does 9 go into 18? 2 times so it would be 2.
