What else can I help you with?
Estimating fractions to the nearest whole number?
If the fraction is less than half, round down. If the fraction is half or greater, round up.
When two fractions less than one are multiplied the product is sometimes greater than 1?
Certainly. -31/2 and -41/2 are both less than 1 and their product is 15.75
How coule you use the relationship between the numerator and denominator of fractions equivalent to one-half to determine if a fraction is greater than one-half?
In fractions equivalent to 1/2, the numerator is half of the denominator. Any fraction where the numerator is less than half of the denominator, like 19/40, is less than 1/2. Any fraction where the numerator is more than half of the denominator, like 49/96, is greater than 1/2. That's also a quick way to compare fractions. 4/9 is less than 5/8.
What 3 fractions that are between one half and 1?
Three fractions that are between one-half and one are 3/5, 4/7, and 5/8. Each of these fractions is greater than 1/2 and less than 1, providing examples of numbers that fall within that range.
Is one half greater or less than one third?
One half is greater than one third. When comparing the two fractions, one half (1/2) is equivalent to 0.5, while one third (1/3) is approximately 0.33. Since 0.5 is greater than 0.33, one half is indeed greater than one third.
When will the quotient of two fractions less than 1 be greater than either fraction?
Yes. Consider two negative fractions. Since they are negative, both are less than 1. But their product is positive and so greater than either.
Estimating fractions to the nearest whole number?
If the fraction is less than half, round down. If the fraction is half or greater, round up.
What other fractions that are less than one half?
Any fraction with a numerator of one and a denominator greater than two.

When is the product of two fractions less than its factors?
If the fractions are both proper fractions ... equivalent to less than 1 ... thenthat's always true ... the product is always less than either factor.
What fractions are greater than 0 and less than 1?
Proper fractions.
How do you do greater than and less than with fractions?
You find the common denominator for both fractions and which ever has the highest numerator is greater.
How can a number line help us think about fractions greater than 1 and less than 0?
Fractions greater than 1 are to the right of 1 and fractions less than 1 are to its left.
What 3 fractions that are between one half and 1?

Is it true that when you multiply two natural numbers the product is never less than either of the two numbers?
Yes. Natural numbers are counting numbers, equal to or greater than 0. The only ways a product can be less than its multiplicands is when multiplying fractions by fractions or multiplying a positive number by a negative number.
