A fraction with a negative numerator whose absolute value is greater than its positive denominator is a number less than negative one?

Yes.


If you multiply a non zero whole number by a decimal less than one would the product be less than or greater than the whole number?

It depends on the signs of the two numbers.The answer is tricky when at least one number is negative because you have to remember that "less than" means "farther to the left on the number line" and NOT "greater in magnitude". E.g. -20 is less than -4 because -20 is farther to the left even though its magnitude (absolute value) is greater.There are four possible cases:Whole number and decimal are both positive: The product is less than the whole number. The decimal reduces the magnitude of the product, so the product is to the left of the whole number on the number line. E.g. 0.5 * 10 = 5, which is less than 10.Whole number positive, decimal negative. The product less than the whole number. A negative times a positive is ALWAYS negative, so regardless of its magnitude the product is to the left of the positive whole number on the number line. E.g. 15 * (-0.2) = -3 and -3 < 15Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. The product is negative but like in Case 1, the magnitude of the product is smaller, so the product is to the right of the whole number on the number line. E.g. (-8) * 0.3 = -2.4 and -8 < -2.4Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. A negative times a negative is positive, and ANY positive number is always greater than any negative number regardless of magnitude. E.g. (-0.25) * (-12) = +3 and -12 < +3

Is negative four greater thsn negative eighteen?

Yes. If one number is less than another, then the negative of the first is greater than the negative of the second. 4 is less than 18 so -4 is greater than -18


Is negative three and one half less than negative four?

Yes, negative three and one-half (-3.5) is greater than negative four (-4). On the number line, numbers increase as they move to the right, so -3.5 is to the right of -4. Therefore, -3.5 is not less than -4; it is actually greater.


What is greater negative zero point five or negative one?

Negative zero point five (-0.5) is greater than negative one (-1). In the number line, numbers closer to zero are considered greater than those further away, so -0.5 is less negative and thus greater than -1.
