Answer:

B. No. The product of two fractions is the product of the numerators divided by the product of the denominators.

Explanation:

For A: A is clearly false because you can multiply any fraction and it doesnt matter what the denominator is.

For B: The first part is correct, which is that to multiply two fractions, they dont have to have like/common denominators, the explanation part is also correct. When we multiply we multiply the numerator to the numerator and the denominator to the denominator.

For C: C is false because the first part says yes and we know that you can multiply any 2 fractions regardless of denominators.

For D: For D the first part is correct however, the explanation section is false you dont multiply the numerator to the denominator.

For E: You don't have to find the equivalent fraction to multiply because you can do that afterward.

I hope this helps, have a blessed day! :D
