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.
If the numerator (the top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number) then the fraction is greater than 1 If the denominator is greater than the numerator, then the fraction is less than 1
2/3
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.
The answer will depend on the sign of the fraction.(1/4) / 2 = 1/8, which is smaller.(-1/4) / 2 = -1/8, which is greater.
The fraction with the greater denominator is less. For example, 1/2 is greater than 1/3 while 1/3 has the greater denominator.
A positive fraction that is less than one is known as a proper fraction. In a proper fraction, the denominator is greater than the numerator. A reciprocal fraction would have a numerator greater than the denominator. Such a fraction is known as an improper fraction. Improper fractions are greater than one.
If the numerator (the top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number) then the fraction is greater than 1 If the denominator is greater than the numerator, then the fraction is less than 1
Yes 1/2 is greater than 1/5
1/2
No, it is not.
1/2
2/3
It is because an improper fraction has a greater numerator than the denominator of a proper fraction e.g. 3/1, 7/4, 2/1 etc...
Yes, 1/2 is greater than 1/4. 1/2 is equal to 2/4.
Proper fractions are less than one.. Their numerators re less than their denominators. Their reciprocals have numerators greater than their denominators, making them improper. Improper fractions are greater than 1.
