Multiplying improper fractions follows the same steps as multiplying regular
fractions.
13 4 --- * --- = 5 7 There's just no way to reduce this problem. When we multiply 13/5 * 4/7 we get 52/35.
34 45 --- * ---- = 25 17 Here we can reduce with the 45 and the 25. Since both are divisible by 5 we can change the problem like this: 34 9 --- * --- = 5 17 We can also reduce with the 34 and the 17 like this: 2 9 --- * --- = 5 1 ANSWER: 18/5.
Now you get to try a few for yourself.
