SOP for Multiplying System Reliability Ratios

You are a Quality Control (QC) coordinator at a pharmaceutical packaging facility. The reliability of two sequential conveyor belts is represented as algebraic ratios (rational expressions) such as R1S1\frac{R_1}{S_1} and R2S2\frac{R_2}{S_2}. To calculate the combined system reliability, you must multiply these ratios. In your standard operating procedure (SOP) training log, you need to outline the required mathematical protocol. Recall and state the three mathematical steps, in their proper order, required to multiply rational expressions completely.
