Question

-Find the product.-Simplify to lowest terms.
`(2)/(12) * (4)/(9) =`A)2/7B)8/21C)2/27D)2/108

Answer 1

To find the product of fractional multiplication you multiply as follow:

`(a)/(b)\cdot(c)/(d)=(ac)/(bd)`

In this case:

`(2)/(12)\cdot(4)/(9)=(2\cdot4)/(12\cdot9)=(8)/(108)`

Then we simplify:

`(8)/(108)=(4)/(54)=(2)/(27)`So the final product is: 2/27
