Multiplying Fractions: Why Do Schools Teach It This Way?

In this video, I show how to multiply fractions by multiplying straight across, the method most students will use in middle school and high school. I also compare this approach to the picture/area model often taught in 5th grade and explain why I believe multiplying straight across is more effective for helping students truly understand the concept and succeed long-term in math. This video is for students, parents, and teachers who want math to actually make sense—not just look good on paper. 👇 I want to hear from you: Why do you think multiplying fractions is taught with pictures in 5th grade?
