...integers, separately, and add their products together. III. To multiply one fraction by another, — Multiply together the numerators for a new numerator,...the denominators for a new denominator. • Note. If either or both are mixed nwnbers, they may first be reduced to improper fractions. EXAMPLES FOR... | |

...evidently too large, and must be divided by d. To multiply a fraction by a fraction, therefore, we multiply the numerators for a new numerator, and the denominators for a new denominator. The value of a Compound Fraction, which is the fraction of a fraction, as % of f, is found by this... | |
