Answer:

1) 13/15

2) 3/11

Explanation:

Multiplication: Multiply the numerators together (4 x 13). That equals 52

Multiply the denominators together (5 x 12). That equals 60

Simplify the fraction 52/60 to 13/15


Division: Leave 20/11, change the division sign to a multiplication sign, and use the reciprocal (or opposite) of 20/3 which is 3/20.

Multiply the numerators together (20 x 3). That equals 60

Multiply the denominators together (11 x 20). That equals 220

Simplify the fraction 60/220 to 3/11

4/5* 13/12= 13/15

20/11 divided by 20/3 equals 20/11 * 3/20 which equals 3/11
