Summary:
- Multiplying is EASY - just (top*top)/(bottom*bottom)!
- But remember to cancel any factors early on (before you do any "real" multiplying)
- If one number isn't a fraction, you can always add a "one" on the bottom...
- Instead of dividing, we'll multiply by the inverse (or reciprocal) instead - just flip the second fraction and multiply!
