To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators (top numbers) together and the denominators (bottom numbers) together.
So, multiplying 4/5 times 5/8 can be calculated as follows:
(4/5) * (5/8) = (4 * 5) / (5 * 8) = 20/40
To write the fraction in simplest form, you can simplify both the numerator and the denominator by dividing them by the greatest common divisor, which is 20.
20/40 = (20 ÷ 20) / (40 ÷ 20) = 1/2
Therefore, 4/5 times 5/8 written in simplest form is 1/2.
