1/7 and 1/8
It need not be. The numbers 1/2 and (-1/2) are both fractions less than 1 but their quotient is -1, which is less than both the fractions.
Improper fractions are always > 1. Reason, the numerator (top) is always larger than the denominator(bottom). NB Improper fractions is the correct term for 'Top Heavy' fractions.
No because 2/6 is less than 4/6 or 1/3 is less than 2/3
1. Proper Fractions where the numerator is less than denominator. 2. Improper Fractions or top-heavy fractions where the numerator is greater than denominator.
1/4,1/8,1/16...
1 fifth 1 sixth 1 seventh 1 eighth

Fractions greater than 1 are to the right of 1 and fractions less than 1 are to its left.
Proper fractions.
If the fractions are both proper fractions ... equivalent to less than 1 ... thenthat's always true ... the product is always less than either factor.
One of anything is less than five of the same thing.
1/2, 1/4
If you multiply by 1 they stay the same. If you multiply by more than 1 they increase. Fractions less than 1 are less than unity so the products decrease because you are only taking a fraction of the number.
Improper fractions are always > 1. Reason, the numerator (top) is always larger than the denominator(bottom). NB Improper fractions is the correct term for 'Top Heavy' fractions.
No because 2/6 is less than 4/6 or 1/3 is less than 2/3
if you are adding two fractions that are both greater than 1/2, what must be true about the sum?
1. Proper Fractions where the numerator is less than denominator. 2. Improper Fractions or top-heavy fractions where the numerator is greater than denominator.
