Answer 1

We want to list the steps involved in multiplying fractions;

Taking an example;

`(2)/(3)*(3)/(4)`

First steps are;

- Multiply the numerators together

- Multiply the Denominators together

`\begin{gathered} =(2*3)/(3*4) \\ =(6)/(12) \end{gathered}`

Next is to;

Check to see if the product can be simplified;

`(6)/(12)=(1)/(2)`

So, we get the product to be;

`(1)/(2)`
