Multiplying Fractions with Polypad

Hi, I'm Amanda Jones and in this video, I'll be discussing multiplying fractions using visual models and manipulation. I'll be using a virtual manipulative called polypad from mathagon to demonstrate how fractions can be multiplied. I'll start by explaining the concept of multiplication and how it relates to fractions. Then, I'll walk you through two examples. I'll show you how to model these fractions using fraction circles and how to manipulate them to find the product. By the end of the video, you'll have a clear understanding of how to multiply fractions and how to visualize the process.
