Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

Hey there!

When multiplying fractions, there is no need to make the denominators the same like how you do when adding fractions

So we can just straight multiply the numerators and the denominators together


(1)/(4)*(3)/(1)

I made 3 to 3/1 so the multiplying process is easier

3 x 1 is 3 and 4 x 1 is 4

The numerator is 3

The denominator is 4

3/4

So 1/4 x 3 is 3/4
