\(\frac{3}{8}\) × \(\frac{2}{5}\)
First, apply this rule: \(\frac{a}{b}\) × \(\frac{c}{d}\) = \(\frac{ac}{bd}\) / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{3x2}{8x5}\)
Second, simplify 3 × 2 to 6. / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{6}{8x5}\)
Third, simplify 8 × 5 to 40. / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{6}{40}\)
Fourth, simplify. / Your problem should look like: \(\frac{3}{20}\)
Answer as fraction: \(\frac{3}{20}\)
