Hello There!

We are given the fraction 3/8 multiplied by 5/6.

Step 1. First, we multiply across so we multiply 3*5 which is 15 and then we multiply 8*6 which equals 48.

Step 2. Both of these can be divided by 3 so we can put the fraction that we already have in simplest form. Dividing 15 by 3 equals 5 and dividing 48 by 3 equals 16.

Final step. We now have our simplified fraction which is 5/16.

Have a great day!

Be safe!
