Answer:

1/5

5/12

Explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) Whenever we multiply fractions, we have to multiply the numerator with the numerator and the denominator with the denominator.

2) In this case it would be:

1/2 x 2/5 = 1 x 2/2 x 5 = 2/10 = 1/5

3/4 x 5/9 = 3 x 5/4 x 9 = 15/36 = 5/12

Hope this helps! :D
