When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the answer larger or smaller than the fraction?
smaller
When you divide a unit fraction less than 1 by a whole number is the quotient larger or than fraction smaller than?
it is smaller (1/2)/2=.25
When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than 1 is the quotient greater than the whole number?
The quotient is always greater than the whole number. Why? Because it takes more to add up a smaller number than a bigger number. I hope this makes sense.. I'm really stupid XD
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.
When a whole number greater than one is divided by a unit fraction less than one the quotientis always greater than the dividend?
No. The quotient is less than or greater than the dividend, depending on the sign of the fraction.4 / (1/2) = 8, which is greater than 4.4 / (-1/2) = -8, which is smaller than 4.-4 / (1/2) = -8, which is smaller than -4.-4 / (-1/2) = 8, which is greater than -4.
When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the answer larger or smaller than the fraction?
smaller
What will happen to a whole number when multiplied by a fraction smaller than 1?
You will get a number - whole or fraction - whose magnitude will be smaller than the original.
What happens when you multiply a positive whole number by a fraction smaller than 1?
In that case, the result will be smaller than your positive whole number.
When you divide a unit fraction less than 1 by a whole number is the quotient larger or than fraction smaller than?
it is smaller (1/2)/2=.25
What happens when you divide a whole number by a fraction larger than one?
The result could be a whole number or a fraction. But whatever it is, it's smaller than the original whole number.
Is a mixed fraction bigger than a regular fraction?
Yes it is. A regular fraction is a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator, thus the value of the fraction will always be less than one. Note that a fraction with it's numerator bigger than the denominator does not count as a regular fraction; it is called a improper fraction. Whereas a mixed fraction is a regular fraction with a whole number at the left that is at least one. Thus, the value of a mixed fraction will always be more than one.
Why is the product of a fraction ( less than one ) and a whole number smaller than the whole?
The question cannot be answered because the assertion is false.-1/2 is a fraction which is less than 1. -4 is a whole number. Their product is (-1/2)*(-4) = 2 which is larger than the whole number, not smaller.
What happens to a whole number when multiplied by a fraction smaller than one?
It decreases.
Fraction less than one?
A fraction less than one is a fraction where the numerator is smaller than the denominator. For example, 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 are all fractions less than one. These fractions represent a part of a whole that is smaller than the whole.
Proper fraction and improper fraction?
If you're asking the difference, then a proper fraction is when the numerator is smaller than the denominator. And an improper fraction is a fraction bigger than whole or when the numerator is larger than the denominator.
Can you ever find a fraction smaller thaan any other fraction?
Always: 1/(x +1 ) is smaller than 1/x
When sqaring a fraction samller than one the result will be?
it will always be a smaller number
