Write 2/3 × 1/5 as a fraction.
Solution:
A fraction can be a portion or section of any quantity out of a whole, where, the whole can be any number, a specific value, or a thing. All fractions consist of a numerator and a denominator.
We will use the basic multiplication of fractions to solve the given problem.
Hence we can write 2/3 × 1/5 = 2/15
Here we can separately multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator.
(2 × 1) / (3 × 5) = 2/15
And also we observe that HCF of 2 and 15 is 1.
Therefore 2/15 is in the lowest form as HCF(2, 15) is 1.
Hence, 2/3 × 1/5 as a fraction is 2/15.
Write 2/3 × 1/5 as a fraction.
Summary:
= 2/3 × 1/5 as a fraction is 2/15
