When you multiply a value by a fraction, the value decreases if the fraction is less than 1 (because you are taking a part of the whole). If the fraction is exactly 1, the value stays the same. If the fraction is greater than 1, the value increases.
So, the answer depends on the fraction being used. If the question is about a fraction that is less than 1, then the value decreases. Thus, the most appropriate answer in a general sense is "decreases" when considering typical fractions used in multiplication.
