No. Make 3/7 and 1/2 equivalent fractions with the same denominator (bottom number): 3/7 = 6/14 1/2 = 7/14 Now compare the numerators (top numbers): 6 is smaller than 7, thus 3/7 is smaller than 1/2
There are infinitely many such numbers. Amongst them, 7
If by "smaller than ten" you mean closer to zero than 10, then sum = -9 + -7 + ... + -1 + 1 + ... + 7 + 9 = 0 If you mean the numbers less than 10, then: sum = 9 + 7 + ... + 1 + -1 + -3 + ... = -∞ If you mean the counting numbers less than 10, then: sum = 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = ½ × 5 × (1 + 9) = ½ × 5 × 10 = 25
1/8 is smaller than 1/7
7 pints are smaller than 1 gallon because 1 gallon is equal to 8 pints. So, 7 pints would be smaller than 1 gallon by 1 pint.
1/5 is smaller than 7/8

-1 is smaller than 1
1/2 = 5/10 which is smaller than 7/10
6+1/10^100 for instance
