Yes sometimes because the equivalent of say 4/8 is 1/2
It is not possible. There is no fraction equivalent to 1/73 which has a denominator less than 50.In fact, if p is any prime greater than 50, then for any fraction q/p, there is no equivalent fraction with denominator less than 50.
17/4
That cannot be simplified.
If the denominator is more than double the numerator, then the fraction is less than a half.
a numerator can be more than the denominator but, if it is it is a improper fraction. so the numerator is less than the denominator do the fraction can be proper.

Proper fraction - A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (the top number) is less that the denominator (the bottom number). Proportion - An equation stating that two ratios are equivalent is called a proportion.
If the denominator is more than double the numerator, then the fraction is less than a half.
What a fraction with a denominator less than one means, depends on what sort of denominator it is.A fraction with a negative denominator, like 1/-4 is minus a quarter. It is the same as -1/4. But if both numerator and denominator are negative, like -1/-4, that is equivalent to a positive fraction, in this case, 1/4A fraction with a fractional denominator, like 1 / (1/2) is equivalent to one divided by a half, which is equivalent to one multiplied by the inverse of a half, or 1 x (2/1). That's 2.1 / (1/2) is like asking, "How many halves are there in one?" The answer is two.
a numerator can be more than the denominator but, if it is it is a improper fraction. so the numerator is less than the denominator do the fraction can be proper.
To compare two fractions, you convert them to equivalent fractions with the same denominator. Then you can compare their numerators (top parts). In that case, the fraction with the larger numerator is larger.
its 1 over 3 its 1 over 3
A proper fraction is defined as a fraction that is less than one.
1/2
If the denominator is positive and the numerator is less than the denominator then the fraction is less than 1. If the denominator is positive and the numerator is greater than the denominator then the fraction is greater than 1.
