What is the product of 11/15 and 12/7?
Can you show me how this is done please?
Multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators.
(11/15)(12/7) = 132/105
Simplify:
132/105 = 1 27/105 = 1 9/35

Multiply together the numerators which are the top numbers in fractions
11 x 12 = 132
Next, multiply together the denominators which are the bottom numbers in fractions
15 x 7 = 105
The answer is 132/105
Now simplify or reduce the numerator and denominator to lowest forms
They are already in lowest forms.
You can also change the fraction to a mixed number. 132 divided by 105
gives 1 and 27/105 = 1 27/105
The whole number stays 1 but the 27/105 fraction part can be reduced to 9/35
You answer to find the product of
11/15 x 12/7 = 1 9/35
To find the product of two fractions, you multiply the numerators (top numbers) together to get the numerator of the product, and you multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) together to get the denominator of the product.
In this case, the product of 11/15 and 12/7 is:
Numerator = 11 * 12 = 132
Denominator = 15 * 7 = 105
Therefore, the product is 132/105.
You can simplify the fraction further by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator. In this case, the GCD of 132 and 105 is 3. Divide both the numerator and denominator by 3 to simplify the fraction:
Numerator = 132 ÷ 3 = 44
Denominator = 105 ÷ 3 = 35
So, the simplified product is 44/35.
