Which statement about the product of 7/10 and 7/8 is true?

Answer Choices:

a. The product must be greater than either factor because when you multiply, the product is greater than its factors.

b. The product must be less than either factor because when you multiply a number by less than 1, the number gets smaller.

c. The product must be between the two factors because you multiply both the numerators and the denominators.

d. The product must be greater than 12 because 7 + 7 = 14, which is greater than 12 of 10 or 8.

Answer:

b. The product must be less than either factor because when you multiply a number by less than 1, the number gets smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

Always when you multiply two numbers and those numbers are less than 1, the product will be smaller than both numbers that are being multiplied and in that case the product of two numbers that are under 1, will be smaller than both of the numbers that are being multiplied.
