To multiply fractions, you simply multiply the numerators (top numbers) together and the denominators (bottom numbers) together.
So, (3/8) x (4/7) = (3 x 4) / (8 x 7)
This equals 12/56.
To simplify this fraction, you find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and divide both by it.
The GCF of 12 and 56 is 4.
So, 12/56 รท 4/4 = 3/14.
Therefore, 3/8 times 4/7 equals 3/14 in simplest form.
