### How to Multiply 3 Fractions?

For multiplying fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators of the given fraction. To multiply any 3 fractions, multiply the three numerators and then multiply the three denominators. After multiplying the numerators and denominators, write them as fractions. This will give the product of 3 fractions in fractional form. To get in decimal form, divide the numerator of the fractional product with its denominator.

For example, consider the fractions ¼ × ⅖ × ⅛.

In this, first multiply all the numerators: 1×2×1 = 2

Similarly, multiply all the denominators: 4×5×8 = 160

Now, the product of the three fractions will be 2/160.
