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.

Why is the quotient of two fractions less than 1 greater than both fractions?
This is simply not true.Consider 2/9 and 2/3Then (2/9) / (2/3) = (2/9)*(3/2) = 1/3and the last time I looked, 1/3 was not greater than 2/3.So, if it is not greater than one fraction, it cannot be greater than both.
Is the quotient of Sixty three divided by Seven greater than or less than the quotient of Fifty four divided by Six Explain?
they are the same they are both 9
Why is the quotient greater than a whole number less than one?
The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
Why is the quotient of two fractions less than either fraction?
There can be no reason because your assertion is not true.For example, 1/6 and 1/2 are both fractions less than one. But their quotient is (1/6)/(1/2) = (1/6)*(2/1) = 2/6 = 1/3. And that is not more than 1/2.
Is the quotient 3.6 divided by 9 greater than or less than 1?
greater than
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.
Is the quotient of two fractions greater or less than the fractions you srart with?
It is greater as for example 3/4 divided by 1/4 is equal to 3
How do you do greater than and less than with fractions?
You find the common denominator for both fractions and which ever has the highest numerator is greater.

Why does the quotient of two fractions less than 1 greater than either fraction?
The statement is simply not true.Consider 2/9 and 2/3, both are fractions which are less than 1.Their quotient is (2/9) / (2/3) = (2/9)*(3/2) = 3/9 = 1/3The last time I checked, 1/3 was not greater than 2/3. I have no idea where you are getting your rubbish assertions from.

Why does a unit fraction less than one is divided by a who number greater than 1 the quotient is always greater than the dividend?
Yes, but this is true of not just unit fractions but any positive number.
Is the quotient for 41 0.8 greater or less than 41explain?
Greater the divisor is less than 1,so the quotient is greater than the dividend
When a lesser integer is divided by a greater integer what will the quotient be?
