Hey, AbbyRoss232!
Hi, I see you need help with multiplying fractions. I will try my best to help you, and hopefully, you will be excellent at it!

1*2=2
2*3=6
2/6 and that can be simplified as 1/3!
I divided the numerator and denominator by 2 and got 1/3.

Hi there! All you do is regular multiplication. 1*2=2 and 2*3=6, if you combine 2 and 6 the fraction would be 2/6. We divide 2/6 by 2, 2÷2=1 and 6÷2=3, which is 1/3. Bascially 2/6 simplified is 1/3. Therefore, your answer is 1/3.
