Multiply 45 and 1/3

Enter fraction(s) below:

We want to multiply the following 2 fractions:

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

Fraction Multiplication Formula

Numerator 1 x Numerator 2

Denominator 1 x Denominator 2

Numerator 1 = 45,
Denominator 1 = 1,
Numerator 2 = 1,
Denominator 2 = 3, so we have:

45 x 1

1 x 3

Reduce our fraction

GCF(45 and 3) = 3

Reduce the numerator by GCF

(1/3) x 45 = 15

Reduce the denominator by GCF

(1/3) x 3 = 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 = 15

Final Answer

Answer = 15

What is the Answer?

Answer = 15
