ACTIVITY NO: 1
MULTIPLYING SIMPLE FRACTIONS AND MIXED FRACTIONS.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

To MULTIPLY fractions:
1. Multiply the numerators.
2. Multiply the denominators.
3. Simplify or write the product in lowest term, if possible.

To MULTIPLY mixed numbers:

1. Convert mixed numbers into improper fractions
2. Multiply the numerators.
3. Multiply the denominators.
4. Reduce the answer in lower term if possible.

Example:
X =
Multiply the numerators 1 x 2 =2
1 2 2 Multiply the denominators 3 x 5 = 15
1. 3 x 5 = 15 Reduce the product whenever possible.
