Answer:

B) always less than either of the original fractions

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily Answer this by taking some values.

The question states that the two fractions, each have values between 0 and 1.

Let us say one of the fraction is 1/2 and the other fraction is 1/3 .

The product of the two fractions is 1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6 .

is lesser than both 1/2  and 1/3 .

So, the correct answer is that the product is always less than either of the original fractions.

The two fractions are between 0 and 1 their product will always less than either of the original fractions.

What is fraction?

A fraction is number expressed "as quotient, in which the numerator is divided by denominator".

According to the question,

If two fractions are between 0 and 1. In order to check their product be more than 1.

Let us assume one fraction is 1/2 and the other fraction is 1/3. The product of the two fractions:

1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6.

Since the value of fraction 1/2 is 0.5, the value of fraction 1/3 is 0.3333 and the value of fraction 1/6 is 0.166667.

It clearly shows 0.5 > 0.16667 and 0.3333 > 0.16667.
