The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!

The quotient is less than the fraction.
Any number below 6 has a quotient less than 1.
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
It will be greater.

If you think about it, it makes sense. when you divide a whole number (call that number X) by any number less than it(call that Z), the quotient (answer) is smaller than the first number. For example, 10/2=5, 12/4=3. Also, the lower the Z number is (ignoring if it were 1), the higher the quotient is. Therefore, since fractions are lower than 0, the quotient will be higher than the X number.
