Yes. A fraction can be either positive or negative since it still equates to a numerical value and can exist as any combination of positive or negative numbers divided by either a positive or negative number.

What is the square root of a fraction?
It is another fraction, as well as its negative value.
What are negative fractions?

How do you convert a negative decimal to a fraction?
Convert the absolute value of the decimal to a fraction and then put a minus sign before it.
What is the difference between a positive and negative fraction?
If you mean the difference in terms of numerical value, then it is the positive faction minus the negative faction, which is calculated as the positive fraction plus the absolute value* of the negative fraction - just like the difference between a positive and negative number. * The absolute value of a number is the value of the number ignoring any minus sign; eg abs(-4) = 4 = abs(4). If you mean the difference in terms of where they are on the number line, then the positive fraction is one side of zero (it is greater than zero) and the negative fraction is the other side of zero (it is less than zero).
Is a negative over a negative in a fraction the same as a negative fraction?

How do you find the absolute value of an improper fraction?

How do you find eh absolute value of a fraction?
If the fraction is already positive, then it is also the absolute value. If the fraction is negative, just change the sign and it becomes the absolute value. Absolute value means the magnitude (value) of the fraction without any sign attribute.
How can you graph negative fractions on a number line?
Suppose f is a negative fraction. Then |f| is the absolute value of the fraction - the value disregarding the sign. The number is graphed at a distance of |f| to the left of the origin, the zero point.
How do you convert a negative decimal to a fraction?
Convert the absolute value of the decimal to a fraction and then put a minus sign before it.
Can a multiple of a number be of lesser value?
Yes, if either the number, or its multiple, are negative, or, a fraction. Of course, not both can be negative!!!
If there is a negative sign beside a fraction is the fraction negative?
yes it is a negative fraction

No.
Is A Fraction Negative if it has a negative numerator?
If the numerator is negative and the denominator is positive then the fraction will be negative. If the numerator is negative and the denominator is negative too then the fraction will be positive.
