No, it is not possible to divide 15 by a mixed number and get a quotient that is greater than 15.


When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than one will the quotient be greater than or less than the whole number?

When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.

Is it possible to divide 15 by a mixed number and get a qoutient that is greater then 15?

Yes. Because an example of this would be 15 ÷ 4 2/3. To solve you would turn 4 2/3 to 14/3 and 15 to 15/1. Then u multiply to get 210/3. 210/3 simplified is 70. And 70 is greater than 15 so yes, yes u can divide by a mixed number to get a quotient greater than 15. If you came to the conclusion that no you can not. Did you test your reasoning?


What is greatest possible whole number remainder if you divide any number by W explain.?

It is W - 1. If the remainder is greater than or equal to W, then you can subtract W from the remainder and increase the quotient by 1.


Is it possible to divide 15 by a mixed number and get a quotient that is grater than 15?

I assume that by a mixed number you mean a number of the form ab/c where a is an integer greater than 0 (otherwise the number would be a simple fraction), the answer is No.

When you divide a decimal by a number greater than 1 how does the quotient compare with the divided?

The quotient can be smaller or larger - depending on whether the original was negative or positive. It will be unchanged if it was 0.
