Multiplying fractions
Explanation:
One question, asked in two different ways:
- "What is the half of two thirds?"
oder
- "What are two thirds divided by two?"
So you simply divide the field into two halfs and then count the number of fields in one half.
Another example:
What are two thirds of three fifths?
You divide the field into three rows of the same size and count the number of fields in two of them!
Steps:
- Multiply the numerators
- Multiply the denominators
This is what it would look like in the JFractionLab.
