In order to multiply two fractions, we can follow the steps below:

0. find the product between the two numerators; ,(3 * 7 = 21)

,

1. find the product between the two denominators; ,(10 * 2 = 20)

,

2. the product of the two fractions will be the result of step 1 (the numerator of the final result), divided by the result of step 2 (the denominator of the final result):


(3)/(10)\cdot(7)/(2)=(3\cdot7)/(10\cdot2)=(21)/(20)

Therefore, the answer is:


(21)/(20)
