Question

How do you multiply 2/9 x 3? I got 6/9 and my teacher says that your numerator has to be bigger than your denominator. Plus I have to simplify

Answer 1

I got 6/9 as well, and when you simplify, you get 2/3.

Answer 2

So, first you would make 3 into 3/1.
Now, multiply the numerators, then the denominators.
2 x 3 6= 2
9 x 1 9= 3
Well, your teacher must mean when you turn 3 into 3/1...
I hope this helps!
