You can, but the result would be 0/0 which is not defined.

How do you change fraction to similar fraction?
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same integer.
Why can you multiply a fraction by another fraction that has the same numerator and denominator and get a fraction that names the same amount as the original fraction?
You cannot because it is not true - unless the fraction is 0/n (for any n) or n/n = 1.
How do you know that a fraction is closer to 0?
A fraction is close to zero if the numerator is small or if the denominator is large, or both.
How do you know if a fraction is between 0 and 1 or a half and 1?
Convert the fractions to the same denominator and make the numerator the equivalent value. Then compare the numerators. e.g. 1/2 3/4 & 1 Convert all the a denominator of '4' Hence 2/4 , 3/4 4/4 It follows 2
Why does a fraction equal zero when a zero is in the numerator?
because a fraction means the numerator divided by the denominator. whenever you take zero and divide it by something you will always get zero Ex. 0/4 = 0 0/2935871238957 = 0 0/109 = 0
How do you change fraction to similar fraction?
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same integer.
Can you multiply the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same number and get an equivalent fraction?
Yes, unless the number that you use is 0.
If you multiply the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same number the result will be a fraction?
Yes, unless the number used for multiplication is 0. In that case you will have 0/0 which is not defined.
What if the denominator is more than twice the numerator is the fraction 0?
Yes, it can be. If the numerator is 0. Then suppose the denominator is 3, which is bigger than 0 (double the numerator). So the value of the fraction is 0/3 = 0.
How do you know if a fraction is between 0 and 1 or a half and 1?
Convert the fractions to the same denominator and make the numerator the equivalent value. Then compare the numerators. e.g. 1/2 3/4 & 1 Convert all the a denominator of '4' Hence 2/4 , 3/4 4/4 It follows 2
What does a fraction with a zero in the numerator equal?
0. Whatever the denominator - unless the denominator is also 0 in which case the fraction is undefined.
What is a fraction with a numerator that is greater than or equal to the denominator?
It is a top-heavy, or improper fraction but only if the denominator is positive.It is not defined if the denominator is 0 and the numerator is any positive integer.It need not be an improper fraction if the denominator is negative and the numerator is positive - and therefore greater - but of a smaller magnitude.For example, consider 2/(-3): the numerator = 2 is bigger than denominator = -3, but the fraction is not improper.
How do you change a fraction when the numerator is 0?
You can't change a fraction when the numerator is zero because no matter what the denominator is the fraction is still zero. A zero denominator is not allowed because you cannot divide by zero.
Why can you multiply a fraction by another fraction that has the same numerator and denominator and get a fraction that names the same amount as the original fraction?
You cannot because it is not true - unless the fraction is 0/n (for any n) or n/n = 1.
What is a fraction in which the numerator is equal to the denominator?
If the two are 0 then the fraction is not defined. Otherwise it has the value 1.
What fraction ois equal to 0?
It is any fraction whose numerator is zero and denominator is not zero.
Which fraction is equal to 0?
The primary answer is 0/1. However, you can multiply the numerator and denominator of the primary answer by any non-zero integer to obtain an equivalent fraction. If the selected integer is n, the equivalent fraction will be (0*n)/(1/n) = 0/n. Thus any number of the form 0/n is a fraction equivalent to 0.
