Multiplying Fractions Calculator
Multiplying Fractions Calculator
Multiplying fractions is actually simpler than adding or subtracting them, since there's no need to find a common denominator first — you just multiply straight across. Enter two fractions here and this calculator multiplies the numerators together and the denominators together, then simplifies the result to its lowest terms. It also shows the decimal equivalent, useful for checking your work or plugging the result into another calculation.
- How multiplication works: multiply the two numerators together and the two denominators together, then simplify the result.
- No common denominator is required — this is what makes multiplying fractions simpler than adding them.
- The result is always shown fully simplified, along with its decimal equivalent.
How do I multiply two fractions?
Multiply the numerators to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators to get the new denominator, then simplify.
What is 2/3 × 3/4?
(2×3)/(3×4) = 6/12, which simplifies to 1/2.
