less than
less, if it is a fraction of a half, it cannt be a whole
greater than 1
Every mixed number is (a whole number) plus (a fraction). Since part of it is a whole number, the mixed number must be greater than ' 1 '. 1/8 plus 2/3 is only 0.79166... and that's less than ' 1 '. So it doesn't have what it takes to be a mixed number, no matter what you do to it or how you write it.
-2 is less than plus 3.
199 over 198 estimate = 1 actual answer would be greater than 1 35 over 17 estimate = 1 actual answer would be greater than 1
-7
Greater. observe, 15/17 + 4/17 = 15 + 4. So 15 + 4 = 19 and 19 is greater than 17, therefor it is greater than 1. The entire answer is 1 2/17.
A whole number plus a negative number results in a value that can be either a whole number or a negative number, depending on the magnitude of the numbers involved. If the absolute value of the negative number is less than the whole number, the result will be a positive whole number. If the absolute value of the negative number is greater than or equal to the whole number, the result will be zero or a negative number.
What is the question ? This is often referred to as an "improper" fraction. It can always be re-written as an integer (whole number) plus a proper fraction (a fraction less than one).
