When it comes to the multiplication of fractions, it involves a simple step of multiplying the numerators (numbers on the top) to determine the new numerator and the denominators (numbers on the bottom) to figure out the new denominator. Following that, it's important to simplify the fraction if it's possible to do so. Take for instance, 1/2 x 3/4 = 3/8. Unlike fraction addition or subtraction, finding a common denominator isn't necessary in this case.
