    Steps to multiplying fractions:

    • Multiply the numerators of given fractions.
    • Multiply the denominator of given fractions.
    • Write the resultant fraction in simplest form by dividing numerator and denominator by same number.

    Example: 2/5 × 10/11

    • Multiply the numerators: 2 × 10 = 20
    • Multiply the denominators: 5 × 11 = 55
    • Now, we have a new fraction with numerator 20 and denominator 55.

    2/5 × 10/11 = 20/55

    Reduce 20/55 in simplest form

    H.C.F of 20 and 55 is 5

    Now, Divide both numerator and denominator by 5

    20 ÷ 5/ 55 ÷ 5 = 4/11

    Final answer = 4/11
