Question

I am going to be tutoring my friend(he is a guy) soon in multiplication and divison of fractions at the 6TH GRADE LEVEL, i really need ideas!!!!! any ideas or websites?

Answer 1

Well depending on the problems, but it is basic multiplication.

When multiplying, just multiply the two top #'s and multiply the two bottom #'s. If you need to simplify do so (divide evenly). When dividing, flip the second fraction, then multiply as if it were a multiplication problem.
