When you divide a fraction by a whole number greater than one how does the quotient compare to the fraction?
The quotient is less than the fraction.
When you divide a unit fraction by a whole number will the quotient be greater than or less than the unit fraction?
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
When you divide a whole number by a decimal less that 1 the quotient is greater than the whole number?
Yes as for instance 8 divided by 4 = 2 but 8 divided by 1/4 = 32
Is the product of fraction less than 1 and a whole number greater than or less then the whole number?
It can be greater than or less than it.
Is 1.03 greater or less than 0.03?
1.03 is greater, as it has a whole number.
When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than one will the quotient be greater than or less than the whole number?
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
When you divide a mixed number by a fraction less than 1 will the quotient be greater or less than the whole number?
It will be greater.
When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the quotient greater than or less than 1?
greater

When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than 1 will the quotient be greater or less than the whole number?
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)
When you divide a unit fraction by a whole number will the quotient be greater than or less than the unit fraction?
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
When you divide why the whole number by a decimal less than 1the quotient is greater than the whole number?
The question cannot be answered because its assertion is not true.8 is a whole number, and -2.5 is a number which is less that 1. But 8/(-2.5) = -3.2 is not greater 8.
When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than 1 is the quotient greater than the whole number?
The quotient is always greater than the whole number. Why? Because it takes more to add up a smaller number than a bigger number. I hope this makes sense.. I'm really stupid XD
When you divide a fraction less than one by a whole number greater than one is the quotation less than greater than or equal to the dividend?
I have no idea about the quotation, but the quotient is less than the divisor.
When a whole number greater than one is divided by a unit fraction less than one the quotient is always greater than the dividend true or false?
True.
Why does a whole number divided by a fraction less than one have a quotient greater than the whole number dividend?
If you think about it, it makes sense. when you divide a whole number (call that number X) by any number less than it(call that Z), the quotient (answer) is smaller than the first number. For example, 10/2=5, 12/4=3. Also, the lower the Z number is (ignoring if it were 1), the higher the quotient is. Therefore, since fractions are lower than 0, the quotient will be higher than the X number.
