Smaller. Just try it out with some numbers; for example, 0.5 x 20 = 10 (10 is less than 20).
The product is less than the other factor. For example: 0.5 x 6 = 3. 3 is less than the factor that is greater than 1 (which is 6).
The terms (factors) used in multiplication are the multiplicand (the factor being multiplied), the multiplier (the factor that the multiplicand is multiplied by) and the product (the answer, or results of the multiplication). Any time either of the factors is greater than the other by at least one, the product will always be greater than the largest factor.
The product will be less than the other factor.
No, you cannot. The answer can be greater than (or less than) neither, one or both numbers.For example,-4.5 and -2.2 are both less than 1. Their product is 9.9 which is greater than both.-4.5 and 0.2 are both less than 1. Their product is 0.9 which is less greater than one and less than the other.0.5 and 0.2 are both less than 1. Their product is 0.01 which is less than both.
not always.. take .0001 and 1.1, the product is less than 1.
The product is less than the other factor. For example: 0.5 x 6 = 3. 3 is less than the factor that is greater than 1 (which is 6).
When one factor is less than one, the product will be less than the other factor.
greater

Any time either of the factors is greater than the other by at least one, the product will always be greater than the largest factor.
If there are three factors, then one of them being less than 1 does not imply anything about the product of all three and either of the other two factors. For example, 2 = 0.5*1*4 where the first factor is less than 1. The product 2 is less than one of the other factors but bigger than the last.
The product will be less than the other factor.
When they have a common prime factor. When their GCF is greater than 1.
It means that one factor is greater than (>) or less than (<) some other factor.
This is a clever question. I would say: "Always". To be more precise: The product is never greater than either factor, and if neither factor is ' 1 ', then the product is always less than both.

The product is less than either factor.
It can be greater than or less than it.
