To determine whether the sum of two fractions with a common denominator is greater than, less than, or equal to 1, you need to add the numerators of the fractions together and compare the result to the common denominator. If the sum of the numerators is greater than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be greater than 1. If the sum of the numerators is less than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be less than 1. If the sum of the numerators is equal to the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be equal to 1.
Proper fractions are less than one.. Their numerators re less than their denominators. Their reciprocals have numerators greater than their denominators, making them improper. Improper fractions are greater than 1.
Yes. Consider two negative fractions. Since they are negative, both are less than 1. But their product is positive and so greater than either.
Well, technically any fraction less than 25 can be expressed as a numerator over 25, so the answer would be any fraction in the form of a/b where a is less than 25 and b is any number greater than 1. But seriously, why are we limiting ourselves to fractions less than 25? Live a little and embrace all the fractions out there!
Proper fractions are less than 1. Improper fractions are greater than 1. For a proper fraction to become an improper fraction, you would have to add a quantity that would make it greater than 1.
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.
Fractions greater than 1 are to the right of 1 and fractions less than 1 are to its left.
Fractions smaller than 1/10 are any fractions where the numerator is less than 1. These include fractions such as 1/11, 1/12, 1/100, and so on. Essentially, any fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator will be smaller than 1/10.
Proper fractions.

If the fractions are both proper fractions ... equivalent to less than 1 ... thenthat's always true ... the product is always less than either factor.

1/2, 1/4
If you multiply by 1 they stay the same. If you multiply by more than 1 they increase. Fractions less than 1 are less than unity so the products decrease because you are only taking a fraction of the number.
Improper fractions are always > 1. Reason, the numerator (top) is always larger than the denominator(bottom). NB Improper fractions is the correct term for 'Top Heavy' fractions.
