Hi there! I'll help you solve this problem!

The term that implies multiplication is the word "product".

Let's take a look at the other words.

• "reduce" implies simplifying the fraction. 2/4 reduces to 1/2.
• "percent" implies a part of 100. 60 percent = 60/100.
• "ratio" implies division. 3 : 5 = 3/5 = 3 to 5.
