Question

Multiply (3)/(4) by (2)/(3). Show your answer in simplified form.

Answer 1

0.5 or 1/2

Explanation:

because it's being multiplied by each other in fraction we will cross multiply 2 and 4 so we will get 3/2 ×1/3 then we will multiply them so we will multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator so we will get 3/6 we will cancel then and get 1/2 then if we divide them we get 0.5 so that will be the answer.

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

Hi! Our task is to multiply these fractions:

`\sf{\cfrac{3}{4}*\cfrac{2}{3}}`

We can reduce before multiplying.

`\sf{\cfrac{1}{4}*\cfrac{2}{1}}`

Now we just multiply.

`\sf{\cfrac{1\cdot2}{4\cdot1}}`

`\sf{\cfrac{2}{4}}`

`\boxed{\sf{(1)/(2)}}`
