What else can I help you with?
When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the answer larger or smaller than the fraction?
smaller
Can you ever find a fraction smaller than any other fraction?
No, because there is an infinite number of possibilities smaller from the larger gives
How do you compare two fractions whose numerators are the same?
If the fractions have the same numerator (top number), then the fraction with the larger denominator (bottom number) is the smaller fraction, which implies that the fraction with the smaller denominator is the larger fraction. For example with 1/2 and 1/4, it can be easily seen that 1/2 is the larger of the two.
How do you find out which fraction is larger?
Multiply each numerator by the opposite denominator, otherwise known as cross multiply. Then compare these two products and determine which one is larger. The fraction that contributed the numerator (top number) to the larger product is the larger fraction. For example: Which is larger, 2/5 or 3/4? Multiply 2 X 4 = 8 Multiply 3 X 5 = 15 Determine that 15 is larger than 8. Determine that the fraction 3/4 contributed the numerator (top number) to the larger product, 15. So 3/4 is larger than 2/5.
What is two fraction greater than 58 percent?
Basically, 58% means 58/100. To get a larger fraction, you can replace any larger number in the numerator - or any smaller number in the denominator.
Why do you end up with a smaller fraction when you multiply a whole number by a fraction?
You do not!3 is a whole number, 7/3 is a fraction.If you multiply the whole number by the fraction you get 3*(7/3) = 7, which is larger not smaller.
When you divide a fraction by a whole number is the answer larger or smaller than the fraction?
smaller
When you multiply a mixed number by a fraction will it be smaller than the mixed number?
no according to my opinion it is going to be larger than the mixed # say for example you take 1/3 and 1 2/4 is it going to be larger or smaller larger
Why does a number get smaller when you multiply by a proper fraction?
When you multiply a number by 1, it stays the same. When you multiply a number by a number greater than 1, it increases. When you multiply a number by a number that is less than 1 (a proper fraction), it decreases.
How do you change fractions into improper fraction?
Multiply them by a number larger than its reciprocal.Multiply them by a number larger than its reciprocal.Multiply them by a number larger than its reciprocal.Multiply them by a number larger than its reciprocal.
Explain why it makes sense to multiply when changing from a larger unit to a smaller?
because you have to multiply to break it down into a smaller number
When you multiply any number by a fraction smaller than one what happens to the original number?
The absolute value of the number will be smaller
Can multiply any number with a proper fraction and the answer would get smaller than the number you started with?
Yes you can
Can you ever find a fraction smaller than any other fraction?
No, because there is an infinite number of possibilities smaller from the larger gives

What happens when you multiply a positive whole number by a fraction smaller than 1?
In that case, the result will be smaller than your positive whole number.
How do you find out which fraction is larger?
Multiply each numerator by the opposite denominator, otherwise known as cross multiply. Then compare these two products and determine which one is larger. The fraction that contributed the numerator (top number) to the larger product is the larger fraction. For example: Which is larger, 2/5 or 3/4? Multiply 2 X 4 = 8 Multiply 3 X 5 = 15 Determine that 15 is larger than 8. Determine that the fraction 3/4 contributed the numerator (top number) to the larger product, 15. So 3/4 is larger than 2/5.
