Answer:
2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 x 1/3
Identify the numerators and denominators. We know that numerators are the numbers located on the top of the fraction. Thus, 2 and 1 are both numerators. Denominators are the numbers located under the fraction. Thus, 5 and 3 are both denominators.
When multiplying fractions, multiply the numerators by each other and denominators by each other.
Multiply the numerators first
2 x 1 = 2
Multiply the denominators second.
5 x 3 = 15
Product of the numerators go on the top whilst the products of the denominators go on the bottom.
2/15
So, 2/5 x 1/3 = 2/15
