2/9 x 3/8

Answer 1

To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

So, (2/9) x (3/8) = (2 x 3) / (9 x 8) = 6 / 72

Now, we can simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 6.

6 / 72 = 1 / 12

Therefore, 2/9 x 3/8 = 1/12.
