I’m pretty sure it’s 10/21 if you multiply 5/6 by 4/7 which =20/42 and simplified to 10/21

Answer:

10/21

Explanation:

Remark

Some calculators have a built in function that will do this for you. All you do is enter the two fractions and the answer appears as the reduced fractional answer.

However, we can do this manually as well.

of means multiply. I don't think the meaning ever changes when you are using fractions.

So to get the answer

4/7 * 5/6 Multiply numerator by the numerator and denominator by denominator of each fraction

numerator: 4 * 5 = 20

denominator: 7 * 6 = 42

numerator of answer / denominator of answer = 20 / 42 This will reduce. Divide each part by 2

20 / 2 = 10

42 / 2 = 21

10 / 21

Answer 10 / 21
