Good at math, but not at grammar, eh?

I love you people already; noticing the homework help section convinced me to make an account. Anyway, aside from my love for anime, I have a strong hatred for math. I need someone to help me out with multiplying fractions. I don't want you to do the work for me, but I'd really like it if you'd help me out some. >_<

Multiplying fractions:

1. Multiply the numerators (the number above the line)
2. multiply the denominators ( number below the line)
3. Simplify if needed.

EX. 2/3 x 3/4 = 6/12 which can be simplified to 1/2

did that help?

Oh, I guess I forgot to mention that I'm in Algebra II. >>; I can multiply normal fractions easily, but when you add variables, exponents, and NEGATIVE exponents, I fall over in a pile of mud.

lol, it's alright. It takes me a while (after the course) to figure out that kind of stuff. XD

The key is to just relax and reread things over and over. ;) (I do it all the time).

I'm also glad to hear that this forum wasn't such a bad idea. :D

Can you give me an example? i knew how to but I can't remember any examples. I love Algebra and I'm sure I can help you there and don't worry, I have a lot of experience teaching these sort of stuff and I've never failed to teach what they should learn (means, no one I've ever taught in a test ever failed it )

I've read it so much now that I feel like my brain melted. I do better with other people around to help me. I'm like a person who learns by being shown everything and teachers explaining what they did for each step. I'm just used to it I guess ^^''
