Let's suppose we are given two fractions:


(a)/(b),(c)/(d)

In order to multiply them we simply multiply the numerators and denominators, like this:


(a)/(b)*(c)/(d)=(a* c)/(b* d)

For example, let's say we are given the following fractions:


(1)/(2),(3)/(5)

We can multiply them following the previous rule:


(1)/(2)*(3)/(5)=(1*3)/(2*5)=(3)/(10)
