Question

Why is 2/3 multiply by 6/10 less that 2/3?

Answer 1

When you multiply 2/3 by 6/10, you get (2/3) * (6/10) = 12/30. This fraction can be simplified to 2/5.

Since the numerator and denominator of 2/3 are both larger than those of 2/5, it follows that the value of 2/3 is greater than that of 2/5. So when you multiply a fraction by another fraction less than one (like 6/10), the result is smaller than the original fraction.
