Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
To multiply fractions, you multiply the top numbers and then multiply the bottom numbers.
- •
When multiplying fractions, if you have more than two fractions, you multiply all the top numbers together, and then multiply all the bottom numbers together to get your answer.
- •
Multiplying fractions is like taking a part of another part; the word "of" can replace "times" in word problems.
