When you are dividing two fractions how come your answer is bigger than 1?
The answer is always bigger than one only if the fraction you are dividing by is smaller than the fraction you are dividing into. Any number divided by a smaller number is bigger than 1. To divide fractions you invert he demominator and multiply: 1/2 divided by 1/4 = 1/2 times 4 = 2
Why is the quotient of two fractions less than 1 greater than both?
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.
What fractions are less than 1 ninth?
1 tenth 1 eleventh and so on. 1 eighth would be bigger
Which is bigger 1 over 2 and 1 over 3 fractions?
1/2
Which is bigger two fifths or one fourth?
Here are two methods you can use to compare fractions. 1) Convert to a common denominator. Then compare the numerators. 2) Convert both fractions to decimal, using a calculator. For example, 2/3 = 0.66666... (that is, you divide 2 by 3).

What fractions are bigger than 3 quarters?
1 whole is bigger than 3 quarters
What are three rules you can use to compare fractions?
Rule #1 When two fractions have the same denominator, the bigger fraction is the one with the bigger numerator. Rule # 2 When comparing fractions that have the same numerator, the bigger fraction is the one with the smaller denominator. Rule # 3 You can convert the fractions and then just put the greater than, less than or equal to sign to see what the comparison is between the fractions.
Is 34 bigger than 13?
Yes, 34 is a bigger number than 13. It represents more than 13, but in fractions, 13 is a bigger number. 1/13 is bigger than 1/34. So here is the answer: In positive numbers, yes. In fractions, no. In negative numbers, no.
Are fractions bigger than negative numbers?
You can have negative fractions so it depends. it depends if you have a negative fraction you could have -1/2 but 1/2 is bigger than -1/2. negative numbers will always be smaller than positive numbers.

What fractions are less than 1 ninth?
1 tenth 1 eleventh and so on. 1 eighth would be bigger
Is 8 over 56 bigger than 1 over 7?
8/56 = 4/28 = 2/14 = 1/7 So the two fractions are equal
When you multiply two fractions why is the product smaller than the fractions?
if 1/2 x 1/3 then times it and get 1/6
Is two over eight bigger than 1?
no 1 is four times bigger than 2/8
When you multiply two fractions why is the product greater than 1?
The product is not always greater than 1.
When will the quotient of two fractions less than 1 be greater than either fraction?
Yes. Consider two negative fractions. Since they are negative, both are less than 1. But their product is positive and so greater than either.
