There is no specific name.-4 is smaller than -3 and (-4)/(-3) = 4/3 is a positive improper fraction.
-4 is smaller than 3 and (-4)/3 = -4/3 is a negative improper fraction.
-2 is smaller than 3 and (-2)/3 = -2/3 is a negative proper fraction.
3 is smaller than 4 and 3/4 is a positive proper fraction.
Thus, the fraction can be negative or positive, proper or improper.
What else can I help you with?
Why cant you compare the denominator but you can compare the numerator?
You can compare the denominators.If the numerators are the same, the fraction with the bigger denominator has the smaller value.You can compare the denominators.If the numerators are the same, the fraction with the bigger denominator has the smaller value.You can compare the denominators.If the numerators are the same, the fraction with the bigger denominator has the smaller value.You can compare the denominators.If the numerators are the same, the fraction with the bigger denominator has the smaller value.
What can You noticE about comparing 2 fractions when the numerators are the same?
The larger fraction is the one with the smaller denominator, when the numerators are the same.
When comparing fractions what must you do if the numerators are the same?
If the numerators are the same then a fraction with a bigger denominator is smaller than a fraction with a biiger denominator. The bigger the number you divide by, the smalller each bit is.
How can you tell which fraction is smaller by looking at their denominators?
You can't unless the numerators are equal. In that case, the fraction with the larger denominator is smaller.
When the numerators are the same but have different denominator which fraction is the largest?
The one with the smaller number in the denominator. 3/4 is greater than 3/8
How do add factions with the same denominator?
You first add the numerators then take the denominator to the bottom of the sum of the numerators.
Is three fifths greater than three sixths?
Yes. If the numerators are the same, the larger the denominator the smaller the fraction is.
Which is bigger one third or one fourth?
When the numerators are the same, the bigger denominator gives the smaller fraction and the smaller denominator the bigger fraction. So 3 < 4 means that 1/3 > 1/4
To find the sum of two fractions with the same denominator you just have to add the?
Numerators
Is 8 12elvs smaller than 5 6th?
To compare to fractions, please convert them to a common denominator. (1) Find the common denominator, (2) Convert both fractions to this common denominator, (3) Compare the numerators.
How many proper fraction in lowest term have denominator that is one of the counting number 1 to 9?
For a _positive_ fraction to be proper and in lowest terms, the numerator must be less than the denominator and be relatively prime. For denominator 1: 0 possible numerators. For denominator 2: 1 possible numerator. For denominator 3: 2 possible numerators. For denominator 4: 2 possible numerators. For denominator 5: 4 possible numerators. For denominator 6: 2 possible numerators. For denominator 7: 6 possible numerators. For denominator 8: 4 possible numerators. For denominator 9: 6 possible numerators. Adding all of them together gives 27 positive proper fractions in lowest terms. Symmetrically, there are 27 negative proper fractions in lowest terms. Also, 0/1 is in lowest terms by the above definition. So in total, there are 55 proper fractions in lowest terms with denominator being an integer from 1 to 9.
How do you compare fractions with the same denominator but different numerators?
The fractions can be ordered according to the order of their numerators.
