Yes. The set of rational numbers is infinitely dense.If p/q and r/s are any two fractions then (p/q + r/s)/2 is a fraction which is between the two.

What it the greatest possible fraction greater than zero?

There is no such fraction. Fractions are infinitely dense and, between any two fractions, there are infinitely many more fractions. It is, therefore, always possible to find a larger proper fraction.For example,9/10 < 99/100 < 999/1000 < 9999/10000 and so on, for ever and ever.There is no greatest fraction.


How do you simplify when its just one number in fractions?

A fraction always has one number on top (the numerator), and another number on the bottom (the denominator). If it doesn't have both of those, then it's not a fraction.


What fractions is nearest to 2?

There can be no such thing as a nearest fraction since, given any fraction, it is always possible to find a fraction that is nearer.


Do you divide equivalent fractions?

Any fraction divided by an equivalent fraction will always equal one.Any fraction divided by an equivalent fraction will always equal one.Any fraction divided by an equivalent fraction will always equal one.Any fraction divided by an equivalent fraction will always equal one.


What is the product of two numbers that are reciprocals of one another explain why this is always the case?

A fraction multiplied by its reciprocal is always equal to one. This is because the reciprocal is an inversion of the fraction. The denominator of a fraction is the same number as the numerator of the reciprocal, and vice versa. The product of this is a fraction with the same numbers for the denominator and reciprocal, which is also known as an equivalent fraction. Equivalent fractions are always equal to one.
