Is A Fraction Negative if it has a negative numerator?
If the numerator is negative and the denominator is positive then the fraction will be negative. If the numerator is negative and the denominator is negative too then the fraction will be positive.
When the numerator of a fraction is smaller than the denominator it is a(n) fraction.?
There is no simple answer to the question.If only the numerator is negative then the fraction is a negative fraction which may be proper or improper. If the numerator and the denominator have the same sign then the fraction is positive. It is an improper fraction if they are both negative and a proper fraction if they are both positive.
Can you have negative exponents in the denominator?
You can have negative exponents anywhere. When they are in the denominator, they are equivalent to positive exponents in the numerator of a fraction.
What happens when decrease in numerator and increase in denominator?
The fraction gets smaller or increases, depending on whether the numerator and denominator are positive or negative.
Is -15 rational or irrational?
Any integer, whether positive or negative, is a rational number. It can be expressed as a fraction with a negative numerator and a denominator of 1.
Is A Fraction Negative if it has a negative numerator?
If the numerator is negative and the denominator is positive then the fraction will be negative. If the numerator is negative and the denominator is negative too then the fraction will be positive.
If you have a fraction and both the numerator and the denominator are negative and you simplify it would the numerator and denominator stay negative?
The simplification will be positive. In other words, the numerator and the denominator will NOT stay negative.

How do you you reduce a fraction with a negative number as a numerator?
Reduce it as you would normally, negative fractions are no different to positive fractions. Also, it doesn't matter which of the numerator or denominator are negative, as long as when it is reduced the fraction is negative overall.
Why should there never be a negative sign in both the numerator and denominator of a fraction?
A fraction is really the numerator divided by the denominator. When you divide two negatives together you get a positive, so, you automatically change it to positive.
What is a fraction with a numerator that is greater than or equal to the denominator?
It is a top-heavy, or improper fraction but only if the denominator is positive.It is not defined if the denominator is 0 and the numerator is any positive integer.It need not be an improper fraction if the denominator is negative and the numerator is positive - and therefore greater - but of a smaller magnitude.For example, consider 2/(-3): the numerator = 2 is bigger than denominator = -3, but the fraction is not improper.
If the fraction has a negative denominator?
It is the same as the negative of the fraction with the same denominator positive. eg: 2/-3 = -2/3 -4/-5 = --4/5 = 4/5 You are creating an equivalent fraction by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by -1.
A fraction with a negative numerator whose absolute value is greater than its positive denominator is a number less than negative one?
Yes.
Is -15 rational or irrational?
