Divide the dividend until there is a remainder less than the divisor. The whole number quotient forms the whole number and the remainder over the divisor forms the fraction. Now simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by any common factors (that are greater than 1). The mixed number result is the whole number and the simplified fraction together.
Dividing a number by a decimal always gives a number greater than the dividend. Some decimal numbers are bigger than 1, eg 506.23 , so the answer is less. The statement "a number greater than you" has no meaning so the question cannot be properly understood.
It SHOULD always be less than the divisor... Otherwise your answer is wrong.
The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
All divisors greater than 24, ie 25, 26, 27, ... can give a remainder of 24 when divided into something, as long as that something is 24 greater than a multiple of the divisor being used.The largest remainder any divisor can give is one less than the divisor itself - otherwise another chunk of the divisor can be removed and one added to the (integer part of the) quotient.
Greater the divisor is less than 1,so the quotient is greater than the dividend
I have no idea about the quotation, but the quotient is less than the divisor.
The remainder is less than the divisor because if the remainder was greater than the divisor, you have the wrong quotient. In other words, you should increase your quotient until your remainder is less than your divisor!
Any example where the divisor is less than 1 .
less than
Generally, the quotient of a whole number divided by a fraction will be greater than that whole number, because division is simply multiplying the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor. For instance: 2 / (1/2) = 2 * (2/1)

The answer depends on the sign of the numbers.(1/4) / 2 = 1/8, which is smaller.(-1/4) / 2 = -1/8, which is greater.

There are four parts to a division equation:1. Dividend (number being divided up into groups)2. Divisor (how many groups the dividend is bring broken into)3. Quotient (how many in each group from the dividend)4. Remainder (the leftover that is less than the divisor)Another way to locate them in an expression using the little division house:Dividend is inside the house. Divisor is outside at the door. Quotient is on top of the house and the Remainder are close by their friends, the quotient.Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/Parts_of_division#ixzz18rDC1tVp
True.
Well, let's see. So we can try 285/9 It is 31 with 6 as it's remainder. You know that the dividend is the largest number, and the divisor would be less than the dividend. Since the divisor can't be any smaller than the remainder so would the dividend. Because it will be the only LARGEST number in the division equation.
