I don't know.
Let's see:
7/8 divided by 1/4 = 7/2 or 31/2
9/10 divided by 1/5 = 9/2 or 41/2
7/12 divided by 1/3 = 7/4 or 13/4 .
I guess it doesn't necessarily always have to be.
But . . . -
7/13 divided by 9/10 = 70/117
so sometimes it can be.
It looks to me like fractions behave just like whole or mixed numbers:
-- If you divide a smaller proper fraction by a bigger proper fraction, you get
a proper fraction.
-- If you divide a bigger proper fraction by a smaller proper fraction, you get
an improper fraction, which you can also write as a mixed number.

What is the counter example to the quotient of two proper fractions is a proper fraction?
Any fraction divided by a smaller fraction will do the trick. 1/3 divided by 1/4 is 4/3 which is 11/3
Why the quotient of two fractions is always greater than either fraction?
the quotient is always greater than the either fraction because any time when you multiply either number with 1 you will get the whole entire universe heheheheh
What are the fraction between 0 and 1?
There are infinite fractions between any two whole numbers.
Can the quotient of two fractions be ever equal to one?
Yes, but only if the two fractions are the same or equivalent fractions (other than 0).
Is the sum of two proper fractions is always a proper fraction?
No. 5/8+5/8=10/8=1 1/4First of all it is not reduced and secondly it is an improper fraction.We normally call what you have said a common fraction.
