When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than one will the quotient be greater than or less than the whole number?
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
Why does a whole number divided by a fraction less than one have a quotient greater than the whole number dividend?
If you think about it, it makes sense. when you divide a whole number (call that number X) by any number less than it(call that Z), the quotient (answer) is smaller than the first number. For example, 10/2=5, 12/4=3. Also, the lower the Z number is (ignoring if it were 1), the higher the quotient is. Therefore, since fractions are lower than 0, the quotient will be higher than the X number.
Which is five less than the quotient of a number and 3 is negative 7?
-5
When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the quotient greater than or less than 1?
greater
What is the smallest number divisible by 4?
Every number is divisible by 4. A number less than 4 gives a quotient less than 1 when divided by 4. A number greater than 4 gives a quotient greater than 1 when divided by 4. 4 divided by 4 = 1.
What is nine less than the quotient of a number and 3 is 18?
x/3 - 9 = 18 x = 81
Why is the quotient greater than a whole number less than one?
The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
When you divide a whole number by a fraction less than one will the quotient be greater than or less than the whole number?
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
When you divide a mixed number by a fraction less than 1 will the quotient be greater or less than the whole number?
It will be greater.
9 less than the quotient of a number of 3 is 18 what is the number?
9
When you divide a fraction by a whole number greater than one how does the quotient compare to the fraction?
The quotient is less than the fraction.
How do you write nine more than the quotient of a number and twenty?
(x/20)+9 where x is the number
What whole number divided by 7 is less than 1?

When you divide a unit fraction by a whole number will the quotient be greater than or less than the unit fraction?
The quotient will be less. 1/2 ÷ 2 = 1/4
