The quotient is larger than the original fraction.
The quotient is the result when you divide a numerator of a fraction by the denominator
The quotient is less than the fraction.
it is smaller (1/2)/2=.25

The quotient of the two fractions.
divide
Because it's a fraction
When you divide powers having the same base, subtract the numerator from the denomenator. Put the base in the part of the fraction where the original exponent was larger.
-- Ignore the signs. -- Divide the first fraction by the second fraction, then decide whether the answer is positive or negative. -- If both numbers in a division have the same sign, then the quotient is positive. So the quotient is positive, and you're done.
Invert the fraction and multiply.
Rules for dividing by a fraction are multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of a unit fraction is a whole number. Multiplying by a whole number will make the answer (quotient) larger. ex unit fraction 1/a 7 divided by 1/a = 7 x a/1 = 7a .... a times larger than 7.
