Here's how to multiply

Step 1

Multiplying two fractions is easier than adding them. You just multiply the numerators times each other, then do the same with the denominators.

So we multiply 2 by 1, and get 2.

Then we multiply 3 by 3, and get 9.

And the result looks like this:

Step 2

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?

To find out, we try dividing it by 2...

Nope! So now we try the next greatest prime number, 3...

No good. 3 is larger than 2. So we're done reducing.

There you have it! The final answer is:
