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.
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.
1. Proper Fractions where the numerator is less than denominator. 2. Improper Fractions or top-heavy fractions where the numerator is greater than denominator.
The answer to this question depends on if you mean fractions or subtraction expressions.Fractions:When two fractions have the same numerator, the greater fraction has a smaller denominator. In this case, 1/2 would be greater than 1/3.Subtraction:1 - 2 = -11 - 3 = -2-1 > -2So, the expression "1-2" is greater than "1-3".In both cases, the former choice is greater than the latter.

Fractions that are less than one are known as proper fractions. Their denominators are greater than their numerators. Their reciprocals would have numerators greater than their denominators, making them improper. Improper fractions are greater than one.
