Can multiply any number with a proper fraction and the answer would get smaller than the number you started with?
Yes you can
How do you divide mixed number with a proper fraction?
turn the fraction upside down and multiplyConvert the mixed number to an improper fraction and multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction.
If the number above the line is smaller than the number below the line it is a fraction?
It is a fraction if the number below the line is not zero. If the ABSOLUTE value of the number above the line is smaller than the ABSOLUTE value of the number below the line then it is a proper fraction. Otherwise it is an improper fraction.So, -7 is smaller than 2 but -7/2 is not a proper fraction because the absolute value of -7 (which is 7) is not smaller than the absolute value of 2 (= 2).
When the numerator of a fraction is smaller the the denominator it is a what fraction?

When the numerator of a fraction is smaller than the denominator?

Why is the answer larger when you multiply a whole number by a whole number and smaller when you multiply a whole number by a proper fraction?
It is larger because the two whole numbers form a greater, larger number when multiplpied together. It is smaller when u multiply a whole number by a fraction because a fraction is a decimal and u get a smaller number when multiplying a number like 1/7 of 5
When the number of a fraction is smaller then denominator?
When the numerator of a fraction is smaller than the denominator, that's a proper fraction.
What is a proper fraction?

How do you divide mixed number with a proper fraction?
turn the fraction upside down and multiplyConvert the mixed number to an improper fraction and multiply it by the reciprocal of the fraction.
how to convert a non-proper fraction into a proper fraction?
Multiply the whole number by the denominator. Add the product to the numerator of the proper fraction. The sum is the numerator of the improper fraction. The denominator will stay the same.
How do you change a mix fraction to a proper fraction?
Multiply the bottom by the whole number...and then add THAT number by the top number,hope this is what you're looking for!
How do you make a proper fraction into a mixed number?
To convert a proper fraction into a mixed number, divide the numerator by the denominator. The whole number part of the mixed number is the result of this division. The remainder becomes the new numerator, and the original denominator remains the same. Write the whole number, followed by the remainder over the original denominator to express the fraction in mixed number form.
What is it called when the top number is smaller than the bottom number?
A proper fraction has the top number (the numerator) smaller than the bottom number (the denominator).
35 percent as an improper fraction?
35% wouldn't be an improper fraction - it would be a proper fraction. 35/100, or 7/20 is the proper fraction answer. An improper fraction is where you have a larger number as a numerator and a smaller number as the denominator, such as 100/35.
How do you make fractions proper?
Just make the numerator(top number)smaller than the denominator(bottom number) and it is a proper fraction.
If the number above the line is smaller than the number below the line it is a fraction?
It is a fraction if the number below the line is not zero. If the ABSOLUTE value of the number above the line is smaller than the ABSOLUTE value of the number below the line then it is a proper fraction. Otherwise it is an improper fraction.So, -7 is smaller than 2 but -7/2 is not a proper fraction because the absolute value of -7 (which is 7) is not smaller than the absolute value of 2 (= 2).
