What is the product of 3/7 and 2/4?

1/2
3/14
3/8
5/14

The correct answer is: 3/14

To find the product of the fractions 3/7 and 2/4, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. First, you multiply the numerators: 3 (from 3/7) multiplied by 2 (from 2/4) equals 6. Next, you multiply the denominators: 7 (from 3/7) multiplied by 4 (from 2/4) equals 28. Now, you have a new fraction: 6/28. This fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. When you divide 6 by 2, you get 3, and when you divide 28 by 2, you get 14. Therefore, the simplified form of 6/28 is 3/14. This makes 3/14 the correct answer.
