Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Multiplying and Dividing Fractions Test/Worksheet
I'll solve each problem step by step, showing the work for multiplying and dividing fractions.

Problem 1: $\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{2}{4}$
- Multiply numerators: $1 \times 2 = 2$
- Multiply denominators: $3 \times 4 = 12$
- Result: $\frac{2}{12}$
- Simplify: $\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}$

Problem 2: $\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{2}{3}$
- Multiply numerators: $1 \times 2 = 2$
- Multiply denominators: $4 \times 3 = 12$
- Result: $\frac{2}{12}$
- Simplify: $\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}$

Problem 3: $2 \times \frac{1}{4}$
- Write 2 as a fraction: $\frac{2}{1}$
- Multiply: $\frac{2}{1} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{4}$
- Simplify: $\frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$

Problem 4: $3 \times \frac{4}{5}$
- Write 3 as a fraction: $\frac{3}{1}$
- Multiply: $\frac{3}{1} \times \frac{4}{5} = \frac{12}{5}$
- Convert to mixed number: $2\frac{2}{5}$

Problem 5: $\frac{1}{3} \times 4$
- Write 4 as a fraction: $\frac{4}{1}$
- Multiply: $\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{4}{3}$
- Convert to mixed number: $1\frac{1}{3}$

Problem 6: $2\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{4}$
- Convert mixed number to improper fraction: $2\frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}$
- Multiply: $\frac{7}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{12}$

Problem 7: $1\frac{1}{3} \times 2\frac{1}{4}$
- Convert to improper fractions: $1\frac{1}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$ and $2\frac{1}{4} = \frac{9}{4}$
- Multiply: $\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{9}{4} = \frac{36}{12}$
- Simplify: $\frac{36}{12} = 3$

Problem 8: $1\frac{1}{2} \times 2\frac{1}{5}$
- Convert to improper fractions: $1\frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}$ and $2\frac{1}{5} = \frac{11}{5}$
- Multiply: $\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{11}{5} = \frac{33}{10}$
- Convert to mixed number: $3\frac{3}{10}$

Problem 9: $\frac{2}{5} \div 5$
- Dividing by 5 is the same as multiplying by $\frac{1}{5}$
- $\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{25}$

Problem 10: $\frac{3}{4} \div 3$
- Dividing by 3 is the same as multiplying by $\frac{1}{3}$
- $\frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{3}{12}$
- Simplify: $\frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}$

Problem 11: $5 \div \frac{4}{6}$
- To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal
- Reciprocal of $\frac{4}{6}$ is $\frac{6}{4}$
- $5 \times \frac{6}{4} = \frac{30}{4}$
- Simplify: $\frac{30}{4} = \frac{15}{2} = 7\frac{1}{2}$

Problem 12: $3 \div \frac{1}{4}$
- To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal
- Reciprocal of $\frac{1}{4}$ is $\frac{4}{1}$ or just 4
- $3 \times 4 = 12$

Final Answer:
1. $\frac{1}{6}$
2. $\frac{1}{6}$
3. $\frac{1}{2}$
4. $2\frac{2}{5}$
5. $1\frac{1}{3}$
6. $\frac{7}{12}$
7. $3$
8. $3\frac{3}{10}$
9. $\frac{2}{25}$
10. $\frac{1}{4}$
11. $7\frac{1}{2}$
12. $12$
