Question

find and simplify the product of \\(\frac{3}{5}\\) and \\(\frac{10}{13}\\).

select one answer
a \\(\frac{6}{65}\\)
b \\(\frac{3}{13}\\)
c \\(\frac{6}{13}\\)
d \\(\frac{1}{2}\\)

Explanation:

Set up the multiplication of the fractions

$$ \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{10}{13} $$

Simplify by cross-canceling common factors

$$ \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{10}{13} = \frac{3}{1} \times \frac{2}{13} $$

Multiply the remaining numerators and denominators

$$ \frac{3 \times 2}{1 \times 13} = \frac{6}{13} $$

Answer:

  • (A) \(\frac{6}{65}\)
  • (B) \(\frac{3}{13}\)
  • (C) \(\frac{6}{13}\) (Correct answer)
  • (D) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
