Assuming you mean "the result is less than the first number", this isn't always true:
* The answer will indeed be LESS than the first number, if you divide by a number that is GREATER THAN one.
* On the other hand, the answer will be GREATER than the first number, if you divide by a number that is LESS THAN one.
For example, if you divide 6 by 2, you get 3, which is less than 6.
On the other hand, if you divide 6 by 1/2, you get 12, which is more than 6.
what is dividing fractions and mixed numebers
There is very little that is unique about the process of dividing fractions. Multiply by the reciprocal.
When you're dividing fractions ... or multiplying thrm ... they don't need to have the same denominator.
Dividing fractions invole multiplacation because you can use it too see how many time's a number goes into another answer. And that is why dividing involves multiplacation.

No.

Yes. One method for dividing fractions is to multiply the numerator fraction by the reciprocal of the denominator fraction.
multiply
Yes
It depends on the numbers. For example, dividing by 1 1/2 (one and a half) is exactly the same as dividing by 3/2, since both represent the same number.In general, if you divide by a larger number, the result will be less.
