How can a number line help us think about fractions greater than 1 and less than 0?
Fractions greater than 1 are to the right of 1 and fractions less than 1 are to its left.
What fractions are greater than 0 and less than 1?
Proper fractions.
fractions less than 1/2?
0.5
When is the product of two fractions less than its factors?
If the fractions are both proper fractions ... equivalent to less than 1 ... thenthat's always true ... the product is always less than either factor.
Why do numbers get smaller when multiplied by fractions less than 1?
If you multiply by 1 they stay the same. If you multiply by more than 1 they increase. Fractions less than 1 are less than unity so the products decrease because you are only taking a fraction of the number.
Why is the quotient of two fractions less than 1 greater than both?
It need not be. The numbers 1/2 and (-1/2) are both fractions less than 1 but their quotient is -1, which is less than both the fractions.

Why is the product of two proper fractions less than either of the fractions?
A proper fraction is less than 1. Whenever you multiply something by a number < 1, the result (product) is less than the original number. So when you multiply a proper fraction by a number less one (such as another proper fraction, the product is less than the original proper fraction. The only time a product involving a given number is larger than the given number is when you multiply the given number by a number that is > 1. Since all proper fractions are < 1, products involving them are always less than the original given number.

Which is less than 0.65in fractions?

How can you tell whether the sum of two fractions with a common denominator is greater than 1 less than 1 or equal to?
To determine whether the sum of two fractions with a common denominator is greater than, less than, or equal to 1, you need to add the numerators of the fractions together and compare the result to the common denominator. If the sum of the numerators is greater than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be greater than 1. If the sum of the numerators is less than the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be less than 1. If the sum of the numerators is equal to the denominator, the sum of the fractions will be equal to 1.

What quarter in fractions?
1/4
Can be the improper fractions less than 1?
Improper fractions are always > 1. Reason, the numerator (top) is always larger than the denominator(bottom). NB Improper fractions is the correct term for 'Top Heavy' fractions.
What fractions equal 4?
fractions which are equal to 4 = 4/1, 8/2, 12/3, 16/4, 20/5,...
