Multiplying 2 fractions involves multiplying both numerators divided by both denominators.

Fractions

Fraction Multiplication Formula

Numerator 1 x Numerator 2
Denominator 1 x Denominator 2

Numerator 1 = 264,
Denominator 1 = 1,
Numerator 2 = 3,
Denominator 2 = 8, so we have:

264 x 3
1 x 8

792
8

Reduce our fraction

GCF(792 and 8) = 8

Reduce the numerator by GCF

(1/8) x 792 = 99

Reduce the denominator by GCF

(1/8) x 8 = 1

Build our reduced answer

Since our reduced answer is a whole number, we remove the one from the denominator and write it as:

Answer = 99
