What a question looks like
Example question1/7 × 7/8 = ? Simplify your answer.
Answer: 1/8
- Multiply numerators and denominators: 7/56.
- Simplify to 1/8.
Use this practice well
Explain a multiplication as taking a fraction of a fraction. Multiply numerators and denominators, then simplify; cancel common factors first when that makes the numbers smaller.
What this develops
Create fraction multiplication problems with simplified answers.
A mistake to watch for
Finding a common denominator is an addition strategy and is unnecessary for multiplication.
Ways to use it
- Introduce fraction-of-a-fraction reasoning.
- Practise simplifying products.
- Review cancellation with worked solutions.
Scope and limits
The generator uses numeric fractions rather than mixed-number stories.
