Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are asked to perform the multiplication operation on two fractions. . The fractions are 9\frac{}{9} and 9\frac{}{9}.
3. We need to reduce the answer to its lowest terms if possible.

STEP 2

To multiply two fractions, we multiply the numerators (the top numbers) together and the denominators (the bottom numbers) together.
abcd=acbd\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b \cdot d}

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the numerators and denominators to perform the multiplication.
2929=2299\frac{2}{9} \cdot \frac{2}{9} = \frac{2 \cdot2}{9 \cdot9}

STEP 4

Perform the multiplication in the numerator and the denominator.
2299=481\frac{2 \cdot2}{9 \cdot9} = \frac{4}{81}

STEP 5

The fraction 481\frac{4}{81} is already in its lowest terms because the numerator and the denominator have no common factors other than1.
So, the multiplication of 29\frac{2}{9} and 29\frac{2}{9} is 481\frac{4}{81}.
