name three different pairs of fractions that have the same product when multiplied?

The above is the question.

I understand equivelant fractions but what does the "when multiplied" part mean?

Read carefully.  It wants PAIRS of fractions that have the same product
when you multiply the PAIR.

Here is a PAIR of fractions:      1/2  and  1/4
Their product is    (1/2  x  1/4)  =  1/8

Here is another PAIR of fractions:        1/3  and  3/8    different pair from the first pair
Their product is      (1/3  x  3/8)  =  1/8  <== same product as the first pair.

So far, I showed you two PAIRS of fractions that have the same product
when you multiply the PAIR.

The question wants one more pair ... three pairs all together, that have
the same product when you multiply the pair.
