media type="custom" key="42766" When multiplying 2 fractions, we multiply the 2 numerators together and the 2 denominator together. The new numerator is the product of numerator in the first fraction and the second one. The new denominator is the new product of the denominator in the first fraction and the second one. media type="custom" key="42725" Look at the illustration above, the blue part of the pie represents 1/3. The blue section next to it shows the 1/3 piece divided into 2 equal parts. Choosing 1 of these parts give us the last section which is 1/6.

When we multiply a whole number by a fraction, we multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction. The denominator stays the same. The new result is a fraction in which the numerator has the product of the whole number and the fraction's numerator, the denominator has the fraction's denominator. media type="custom" key="42763"

When we divide a whole number by a fraction, we multiply the fraction by using the **//"RECIPROCAL"//** or with the inverse of the fraction. We can use the inverse of fractions to make it easier by substituting the numerator for the denominator and the denominator for the numerator. In this example, the inverse of 1/3 is 3/1 and the product of 2 and 3 is 6. media type="custom" key="42793" When we divide fractions, we multiply the fractions with the inverse of the second fraction. In this example, the inverse of 1/3 is 3/1. media type="custom" key="42819"
