...í=f¡ and §=й, and subtracting 9 from 10, we have A. Fractions are multiplied together by multiplying the numerators together for a new numerator, and the denominators together for a new denominator. Thus to multiply H by I, we have = — - = — • by resolving 8 X о 24 12 the 8 into 2X4, and cancelling... | |
