What else can I help you with?
If you have a fraction and both the numerator and the denominator are negative and you simplify it would the numerator and denominator stay negative?
The simplification will be positive. In other words, the numerator and the denominator will NOT stay negative.
How do you you reduce a fraction with a negative number as a numerator?
Reduce it as you would normally, negative fractions are no different to positive fractions. Also, it doesn't matter which of the numerator or denominator are negative, as long as when it is reduced the fraction is negative overall.
Why should there never be a negative sign in both the numerator and denominator of a fraction?
A fraction is really the numerator divided by the denominator. When you divide two negatives together you get a positive, so, you automatically change it to positive.
What fraction has a fraction in the numerator denominator or both?
A complex fraction.
What is called if a fraction whose numerator and denominator can both be divided by 1?
irreducible fraction An irreducible fraction (or fraction in lowest terms, simplest form or reduced fraction) is a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are integers that have no other common divisors than 1 (and −1, when negative numbers are considered).

When the numerator of a fraction is smaller than the denominator it is a(n) fraction.?
There is no simple answer to the question.If only the numerator is negative then the fraction is a negative fraction which may be proper or improper. If the numerator and the denominator have the same sign then the fraction is positive. It is an improper fraction if they are both negative and a proper fraction if they are both positive.

What fraction has a fraction in the numerator denominator or both?
A complex fraction.
What is true when the numerator and the denominator of the fraction is equal?
If both the numerator AND denominator are the same... the fraction is an equivalent for the number 1

If both the numerator and denominator in a fraction are negative is the fraction as a whole negative or positive?
If they are both negative, it becomes positive. (just like subtracting a negative - same as adding.) x/y = -x/-y
How are the numerator and the denominator related?
both fraction #
If the fraction has a negative denominator?
It is the same as the negative of the fraction with the same denominator positive. eg: 2/-3 = -2/3 -4/-5 = --4/5 = 4/5 You are creating an equivalent fraction by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by -1.
What is a fraction in the numerator and the denominator or both?
It is part of a compound fraction.
What is a fraction that has a fractions in the numerator denominator or both?
It is a compound fraction.
