Rational numbers are infinitely dense so there is no "next" fraction. There are infnitely many fractions between any two numbers. And there are infinitely more between any two of them, and so on.

What fraction is closet to 1?

If you are talking about it on the number line, there is no such fraction because the base/denominator of the fraction can get very high. As in there is no maximum limit to numbers and there is also no limit to the maximum denominator. The bigger the denominator, the smaller the fraction is and the closer it is to one on the number line. Therefore if you are talking about the number line then it will be like 1/x. If you are talking about in terms of value, then 1/2 is the closest.

How do you convert the fraction one and five-eights into a decimal?

To convert a compound number to a decimal first convert it to an improper (or 'top heavy') fraction.... so 15/8 becomes 13/8 Then you need to divide the numerator (the number above the line) by the denominator (the number below the line).... 13 / 8 = 1.625


How do you locate a fraction and decimals on a number line?

On a number line used to illustrate values in the study of math, integers or whole numbers are spaced evenly, and fractions are in between the whole numbers. Positive nubmers are to the right of zero and negative to the left. On the positive side, a fraction is placed to the right of the next smaller and to the left of the next larger whole number. It doesn't matter whether you are representing fractions as common fractions (as 5/8 for five eighths) or decimals (as .625). Either way, this number would be to the right of zero and do the left of one. 17.4 would be between 17 and 18.

What kind of number is 2 over 3?

it is a proper fraction because the numerator (the top number) is smaller than the bottom number the denominator (the bottom number) therefore making the fraction less than one. An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator is greater than the denomenator making it more than one. You can change an improper fraction to a mixed number. The way you do this is if you start with 19 over 4 you divide 19 by 4 (19/4=4 remainder 3) then put the remainder (if there is one) over the number you divided by (4) and in this case you get 3 over 4. Then put the fraction next to the whole number (4 and 3 over 4)and that is your answer.
