If two fractions have the same numerator but different denominators is the fraction with the greater denominator greater than or less than the fraction with the lesser denominator?
When the numerators are the same, the fraction with the higher denominator is less than the fraction with the lower denominator. The denominator indicates the size of the "parts" being shown as a fraction, and the higher the denominator, the smaller those parts are!
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.
Are proper or improper fractions rational numbers?
Any fraction, whether proper or improper is, by definition, a rational number. A rational number is one which can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, in other words a fraction. It does not matter whether the fraction is proper (numerator lesser than denominator) or improper (numerator geater than denominator).
