To solve the problems in the "Multiplying Fractions Worksheets," we need to multiply the numerators together and the denominators together for each fraction multiplication problem. Let's go through each problem step by step.

Left Column

1. $\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{5}{7}$
- Multiply the numerators: $3 \times 5 = 15$
- Multiply the denominators: $5 \times 7 = 35$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{15}{35} = \frac{3}{7}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 5)
- Answer: $\frac{3}{7}$

2. $\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{7}$
- Multiply the numerators: $1 \times 1 = 1$
- Multiply the denominators: $4 \times 7 = 28$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{1}{28}$ (already in simplest form)
- Answer: $\frac{1}{28}$

3. $\frac{2}{7} \times \frac{3}{5}$
- Multiply the numerators: $2 \times 3 = 6$
- Multiply the denominators: $7 \times 5 = 35$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{6}{35}$ (already in simplest form)
- Answer: $\frac{6}{35}$

4. $\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{7}{9}$
- Multiply the numerators: $3 \times 7 = 21$
- Multiply the denominators: $7 \times 9 = 63$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{21}{63} = \frac{1}{3}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 21)
- Answer: $\frac{1}{3}$

5. $\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{3}{4}$
- Multiply the numerators: $5 \times 3 = 15$
- Multiply the denominators: $6 \times 4 = 24$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{15}{24} = \frac{5}{8}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 3)
- Answer: $\frac{5}{8}$

Right Column

1. $\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{6}{8}$
- Multiply the numerators: $4 \times 6 = 24$
- Multiply the denominators: $5 \times 8 = 40$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{24}{40} = \frac{3}{5}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 8)
- Answer: $\frac{3}{5}$

2. $\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{7}{10}$
- Multiply the numerators: $4 \times 7 = 28$
- Multiply the denominators: $5 \times 10 = 50$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{28}{50} = \frac{14}{25}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 2)
- Answer: $\frac{14}{25}$

3. $\frac{1}{7} \times \frac{8}{9}$
- Multiply the numerators: $1 \times 8 = 8$
- Multiply the denominators: $7 \times 9 = 63$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{8}{63}$ (already in simplest form)
- Answer: $\frac{8}{63}$

4. $\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{1}{2}$
- Multiply the numerators: $3 \times 1 = 3$
- Multiply the denominators: $8 \times 2 = 16$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{3}{16}$ (already in simplest form)
- Answer: $\frac{3}{16}$

5. $\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{6}{9}$
- Multiply the numerators: $2 \times 6 = 12$
- Multiply the denominators: $3 \times 9 = 27$
- Simplify if possible: $\frac{12}{27} = \frac{4}{9}$ (dividing both numerator and denominator by 3)
- Answer: $\frac{4}{9}$

Final Answers

- $\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{5}{7} = \frac{3}{7}$
