Why is the fraction with the higher denominators lesser then the fraction with the lesser denominator?
The fraction with the higher denominators lesser then the fraction with the lesser denominator because it is being split into more pieces.
Think about it this way: you made brownies if you spilt them in half ( 1/2 ) you will have two big pieces but if you split them with a lot of people let's say 25 each person will get a very small brownie.
1/25 is smaller than 1/2

When two fractions refer to the same whole and have the same denominators explain why you can compare only the numerators?
When two fractions have the same denominator, they represent parts of the same whole. Since the denominator indicates how many equal parts the whole is divided into, a larger numerator signifies a larger portion of those equal parts. Therefore, comparing the numerators directly tells us which fraction represents a greater or lesser amount of the whole, making it unnecessary to consider the denominators.
What happends when a numarator in a fraction gets bigger?
When the numerator gets bigger, the fraction gets bigger; that is, it has a greater value The opposite is true if the denominator gets bigger; in this case the the fraction gets smaller; that is, it has a lesser value
How do you compare fractions with like denominators?
Fractions with like denominators: 1. the larger the numerator, the greater is its value. 2. the smaller the numerator, the lesser is its value. Examples. 3/5 > 2/5 1/4 < 2/4
Does a fraction in simplest form have a lesser denominator than an equivalent fraction that is not in simplest form?
Yes. if its not a smaller denominator than the fraction not in simplest form than it isn't simplest form. ex.: 14/42=1/6(simplest form) If you are going to use 14/42 as an example, then 42÷14 would = 1/3rd, not 1/6th. Thus 14/42nd reduced to simplest form would be 1/3rd. 14/42=2*7/6*7=2/6=1/3
How do you get the times a number lesser than the same number?
Multiply the number by a fraction
If two fractions have the same numerator but different denominators is the fraction with the greater denominator greater than or less than the fraction with the lesser denominator?
When the numerators are the same, the fraction with the higher denominator is less than the fraction with the lower denominator. The denominator indicates the size of the "parts" being shown as a fraction, and the higher the denominator, the smaller those parts are!
When two fractions refer to the same whole explain why the fraction with a lesser denominator has larger pieces than the fraction with a greater denominator?
The fraction with the smaller denominator has fewer pieces in the whole. So each piece must be bigger.
Is the fraction with the greater than or less than the fraction with the lesser denominator?
To compare two fractions, you convert them to equivalent fractions with the same denominator. Then you can compare their numerators (top parts). In that case, the fraction with the larger numerator is larger.

How do you put fractions in order from least to greatest?
The denominator should be bigger. The bigger the denominator, the lesser the fraction. For example, The correct order is 1/4, 1/3, 1/2. or u can find the lcd. least common denominator. use it wen there are hard and big denominators
Are proper or improper fractions rational numbers?
Any fraction, whether proper or improper is, by definition, a rational number. A rational number is one which can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, in other words a fraction. It does not matter whether the fraction is proper (numerator lesser than denominator) or improper (numerator geater than denominator).
How do you turn an improper fraction into whole numbers?
7/4 is an improper fraction. The lesser denominator (4) is below the greater numerator (7). Divide the numerator by the denominator to see how many times 4 goes into 7. 7 ÷ 4 = 1 remainder 3 The resulting mixed number is 1 3/4 (one and three over four).
What fraction is lesser than octa?
The question cannot be answered because "octa" is not a fraction.
The lowest possible terms of 51over 68?
To find an equal but lesser fraction, you do the numerator (51) divided by the denominator (68). in this case, it is 0.75 0.75 = 3/4. 51/68 in smallest form is 3/4.
How do you compare fractions with like denominators?
Fractions with like denominators: 1. the larger the numerator, the greater is its value. 2. the smaller the numerator, the lesser is its value. Examples. 3/5 > 2/5 1/4 < 2/4
