find the product.
2/3 x 7/8
(2/3)(7/8) = 14/24 = 7/12
[ You just multiply the numerators (# on top) together to get your new numerator, and your denominators (# on bottom) together to get your new denominator. Then you simplify. ]

To find the product of fractions, you need to multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together.
First, let's multiply the numerators:
2/3 * 7 = 14
Next, let's multiply the denominators:
8
Now, we put the product of the numerators over the product of the denominators:
14/8
Since 14 and 8 have no common factors other than 1, the fraction cannot be simplified any further.
Therefore, the product of 2/3 and 7/8 is 14/8.
