Many fractions are greater than 1/2. To create one, put any number over 2, for example 1.75/2 is more. To convert this into a proper fraction, you count the number of digits after the decimal point - 2. Call this number y. Multiply the top number and the bottom number by 1 followed by y 0s i.e. 1 followed 2 0s, or 100. This means your fraction is 175/200. This fraction is more than 1/2, but we should put it into it's simplest form.

What is a fraction greater than 1 whole?
A fraction greater than 1 whole is called an improper fraction. In an improper fraction, the numerator is greater than the denominator, indicating a value greater than 1. For example, the fraction 5/3 is greater than 1 whole because 5 is greater than 3. Improper fractions can be converted to mixed numbers for easier understanding and comparison.
What fraction is greater than 1 2 but less than 1?
The fraction greater than 1/2 but less than 1 is 2/3. This fraction falls between 1/2 and 1 on the number line, with a value closer to 1 than to 1/2. It represents two parts out of three equal parts, which is greater than half but less than the whole.
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.
