Property 1 = The Product of a Fractional Number and 1 is again a Fractional Number itself

Property 1 Property 2 Property 3 Property 4

Read the following examples to have clear understanding of this Property

Example 1 = Multiply 1/5 with 1
Answer = The Proceed is as :-
Write 1 also as a Fractional Number and we get;
=(1/5) × (1/1)
Now divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get;
= (1 × 1) / (5 × 1)
Solves the brackets;
= 1/5
Hence, we can see that Property 1 stands true.

Example 2 = Solve 1 × (4/3)
Answer = The Proceed is as :-
Write 1 also as a Fractional Number and we get;
=(1/1) × (4/3)
Now divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get;
= (1 × 4) / (1 × 3)
Solves the brackets;
= 4/3
Hence, we can see that If a fractional number is multiplied with 1, the fractional number repeats itself.

Example 2 = Find Product of 1 and (10/27)
Answer = The Proceed is as :-
Write 1 also as a Fractional Number and we get;
=(1/1) × (10/27)
Now divide; multiplication of numerators by multiplication of denominators and we get;
= (1 × 10) / (1 × 27)
Solves the brackets;
= 10/27
Hence, we can see that The Product of a Fractional Number and 1 is the Fractional Number itself.
