In the previous lesson, you have learned how to
use the four fundamental operations such as,
MDAS or Multiplication, Division, Addition and
Subtraction.
=
Steps in multiplying fractions:
Multiply numerator by numerator.
Multiply denominator by
denominator.
Write the product to simplest form.
Consider the other
example.
There is ½ left over pizza on the table.
Allan ate ½ of the left-over pizza. How
much part of the pizza did Allan ate?

How do we visualize the multiplication
of fractions?
- Multiplication of fractions can be
visualized by paper folding or by
shading the drawing.
How is visualization done using
drawing?
- First, draw the shaded part of the
fractions in cross directions, then to find
the product, just count the double
Visualizing or using models in
multiplications of fractions is a
valuable skill that can be
applied in various practical
situations in daily life.
