Answer:


(3)/(5)

Explanation:

1.2 can be written as
(120)/(100)

0.5 can be written as
(50)/(100)

Multiply these two fractions,


(120)/(100) *(50)/(100)

=
(6000)/(10000)

Simplify,

=
(6)/(10)

=
(3)/(5)

Hope this helped!! :)

Answer:


(3)/(5)

Explanation:

1. 2 = 1
(2)/(10) =
(12)/(10) =
(6)/(5) and

0.5 =
(5)/(10) =
(1)/(2), thus


(6)/(5) ×
(1)/(2) =
(6)/(10) =
(3)/(5)
