all answers to this lesson-
1-16/33
2-1/3
3-1 4/21
4-6/49
5-1 3/11
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together.
So,
2/5 * 5/6 = (2 * 5) / (5 * 6) = 10/30.
Since both the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 10, we can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 10.
10/30 = 1/3.
Therefore, the product of 2/5 and 5/6 in simplest form is 1/3.
