Answer
Two rational numbers of the form \[\frac{a}{b}\]and \[\frac{c}{d}\] can be multiplied by dividing the product of numerators from the product of denominators. This can be shown as follows:
\[\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a\cdot c}{b\cdot d}\]
The product of the two rational numbers thus gives:
\[\frac{5}{6}\cdot \frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{12}\]
