The only whole number below 1 is zero; even then, some prefer not to include it.
Some relevant mathematical statements:
Is there anything proven which actually contradicts the "mathematical hypothesis about the smallest number" which is summarized by those last four statements?
product of a fraction less than 1 and a whole number greater than or less than the whole Number
NO because 1 and 1\2 is greater than 1 but less than 2. And 2 is a whole number.
It will be greater.
1 is an example.
The closest whole number to 3/8 would be 1. It is less than the first whole number.
It depends: If the whole number is positive then the result is less than the whole number, eg ½ × 2 = 1 < 2 If the whole number is negative then the result is greater than the whole number, eg ½ × -2 = -1 > -2
It can be greater than or less than it.
product of a fraction less than 1 and a whole number greater than or less than the whole Number
It can be either - depending on whether the whole number is negative or positive.
No, the statement is not necessarily true.
Not necessarily.0.5 < 1 < 1.5 So, the whole number 1 is more than the decimal fraction 0.5 but less than the decimal fraction 1.5 but the decimal fraction 0.5 is less than the whole number 1 while the decimal fraction 1.5 is more than the whole number 1.
1 is 8.7 less than 9.7
If you divided the whole number by Anything greater than 1 and the answer would be less than the whole number.If you divide the whole number by 1 the answer would be the same as the whole number.When you go smaller than 1 - say 0.5 then this is the same as a half 1/2 and there are 2 halves in the number 1Thus if you divide the whole number by 0.5 the answer would be twice the whole number.
NO because 1 and 1\2 is greater than 1 but less than 2. And 2 is a whole number.
Any number below 6 has a quotient less than 1.
Yes. -5 × 0.5 = -1 -1 is greater than -5.
The question cannot be answered because the assertion is false.-1/2 is a fraction which is less than 1. -4 is a whole number. Their product is (-1/2)*(-4) = 2 which is larger than the whole number, not smaller.
