To multiply two fractions, we follow a simple step-by-step process. Let's use the example of multiplying the fractions \( \frac{2}{3} \) and \( \frac{4}{5} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Fractions**: We have the two fractions \( \frac{2}{3} \) and \( \frac{4}{5} \). 2. **Multiply the Numerators**: - The numerator of the first fraction is 2, and the numerator of the second fraction is 4. ...

Problems of finding the fraction if relation of their numerator and denominator is given

Product of two given fractions = (Product of their numerators)/( Products of their denominators)

Knowledge Check

  • Assertion : Multiplication of (-7)/(8) and (2)/(3) is (-7)/(12) Reason : To multiply two reaction numbers, we multiply their numerators and denominators separately, and write the product as ("Product of numerators")/("Product of denominators")

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
    D
    If assertion is false but reason is true.
  • The denominator of a fraction is 3 more than its numerator. If the numerator is increased by 7 and the denominator is decreased by 2, we obtain 2. The sum of numerator and denominator of the fraction is

    Equivalent fraction a given fraction and various fraction obtained by multiplying (or dividing ) its numerator and denominator by the same non -zero number are called equivalent fraction.

    If two fractions have the same numerator but different denominators the fraction with greater denominator is smaller.

    A fraction becomes 9/11 if 2 is added to both numerator and the denominator.If 3 is added to both the numerator and the denominator it becomes 5/6. Find the fraction.

    The sum of the numerator and the denominator of a fraction is 20 if we subtract 5 from the numerator and 5 from denominator, then the ratio of the numerator and the denominator will be 1:4. Find the fraction.
