Find the product of 2/5 and 2/9

.

7 answers

To find the product of \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{2}{9} \), you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together:

\[ \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{9} = \frac{2 \times 2}{5 \times 9} = \frac{4}{45} \]

Thus, the product of \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{2}{9} \) is \( \frac{4}{45} \).

Can I stuff up a bear even if it’s been already sewn?

Yes, you can stuff a teddy bear even if it has already been sewn, but it might require some care. Here are a few options:

  1. Open a Seam: You can carefully open a seam on the bear to create an entry point. Use a seam ripper or scissors, but be gentle to avoid damaging the fabric. Once you’ve added the stuffing, you can sew it back up.

  2. Use a Squeeze Technique: If there is already a small opening (like a hole or an area where the stitching is loose), you might be able to stuff it through that opening. Just be cautious to avoid tearing the material further.

  3. Consider the Stuffing: Use small bits of stuffing, like polyester fiberfill, to prevent lumps and achieve a more even fill.

  4. Reinforce: After you have finished stuffing and if a seam was opened, be sure to reinforce it well with stitches to ensure it stays closed.

If you're unsure or want to keep the bear intact, consider consulting someone skilled in sewing or a professional who specializes in plush toys.

How do u stuff it up?

If you're looking to stuff a teddy bear or plush toy, here are some steps you can follow to do it properly, whether you're doing it via a seam you've opened or through an existing opening:

Materials You'll Need:

  • Stuffing (polyester fiberfill or other plush stuffing)
  • Sewing supplies (needle, thread that matches the bear’s fabric, scissors)
  • Seam ripper (if you need to open a seam)

Steps to Stuff the Bear:

  1. Choose the Right Stuffing: Make sure you have a fluffy stuffing material. Polyester fiberfill is commonly used for stuffing plush toys.

  2. Open a Seam (if necessary):

    • If the bear is fully sewn closed, identify a seam that you can open without damaging the fabric.
    • Use a seam ripper to carefully cut the stitches and create a small opening. Be sure to only cut the threads and not the fabric.

  3. Start Stuffing:

    • Take small amounts of stuffing and begin to push it into the bear. It’s important to use small amounts to avoid clumps and ensure the bear feels even and soft.
    • Use your fingers or a blunt object (like the end of a pencil) to help push the stuffing into the corners and areas that might be difficult to reach.

  4. Shape the Bear: As you go, be sure to mold and shape the stuffing, ensuring that it is evenly distributed. You want the bear to be plush and huggable, not hard or lumpy.

  5. Finish Stuffing: Continue adding stuffing until the bear feels full but still soft. Make sure it’s not overstuffed to the point that it loses its shape.

  6. Sew the Opening Closed:

    • Once you’re satisfied with how the bear feels, carefully stitch the opening closed.
    • Use a needle and thread that matches the bear's fabric color. Make small stitches for a neat finish.
    • Tie off the thread securely and trim any excess.

  7. Final Check: Gently squeeze and manipulate the bear to make sure the stuffing feels even and there are no lumps.

Tips:

  • Always use small amounts of stuffing at a time.
  • Take your time, especially if you're resewing the seam, to ensure it looks neat.
  • If the bear has been loved quite a bit, consider reinforcing other seams while you're working on it.

By following these steps, your bear will be stuffed properly and ready for lots of cuddles!
