Today in class we learned a few new ways to multiply fractions



1: The first way was using a Array Model for example 2/3 x 1/2 would be shown like that-------------------------------------------------->









2: Another way was that we used standard form which is multiplying both numerators and multiplying both denominators to get the anwser for example











Also Kyle showed us a way which is if you have 1/2 x 1/5 you just switch the numerators/ denominators like so to make the multiplying easier..........................










Homework for today were some multiplying questions listed below
