Write 1/2 into its equivalent fractions. ' 2/4 , 4/8. 8/16 5/10
So for 1/2 = 24/ < 3/4
So for 1/2 = 4/8 < 5/8 . 6/8(3/4) , 7/8
So for 1/2 = 8/16 < 9/16.10/16(5/8).11/16_12/16(3/4).13/16,14/16)7/8),15/16
So for 1/2 = 5/10 < 6/10)3/5).7/10.8/10 (4/5),9/10
That's just a few to show how to do it. There are many more fractional systems. The equivalent reduced fraction is placed in brackets alongside.

Fractions that are greater than one are known as improper or 'top-heavy' fractions as the numerator is greater than the denominator.
Proper fractions.
All improper fractions, like 22/7, are greater than one.
You find the common denominator for both fractions and which ever has the highest numerator is greater.
9/12 is greater.
There are infinitely many fractions which are greater than any number and so they cannot be listed.
Fractions greater than 1 are to the right of 1 and fractions less than 1 are to its left.
That only happens if they're both improper fractions, i.e. greater than ' 1 '.
No.
From what I remember, usually comparing 2 fractions means to determine which one is greater. For example compare 2/3 and 3/4. Either convert both to decimal if you're allowed to have a calculator, then you can certainly do that by just dividing. Or you can find a common denominator for the two fractions, and compare the equivalent fractions. In this case the lowest common denominator is 12, and 2/3 is 8/12 and 3/4 is 9/12. Since 9 is bigger than 8, then 9/12 is greater than 8/12, and 3/4 is greater than 2/3.
3/4 is greater than a half.
No, it is not.
