It depends:
If the whole number is positive then the result is less than the whole number, eg ½ × 2 = 1 < 2
If the whole number is negative then the result is greater than the whole number, eg ½ × -2 = -1 > -2
The answer can be another fraction and a whole number or it can be a whole number.
It is the first whole number divided by the denominator of the unit fraction. This could be a whole number or a fraction.
It is larger because the two whole numbers form a greater, larger number when multiplpied together. It is smaller when u multiply a whole number by a fraction because a fraction is a decimal and u get a smaller number when multiplying a number like 1/7 of 5
Write the product of the whole number and fraction numerator over the denominator. If it is an improper fraction you may need to reduce it.
When you divide a number by a fraction between zero and one, the quotient will be greater than that number.
greater than
product of a fraction less than 1 and a whole number greater than or less than the whole Number
It can be greater than or less than it.
less than
less than
less than
The answer can be another fraction and a whole number or it can be a whole number.
Any fraction can be multiplied by a whole number so that the product is a whole number. Simply multiply the fraction (in rational form) by its denominator.
No, the statement is not necessarily true.
how to write 6/9 as a product of a whole number and a unit fraction.
It can be either - depending on whether the whole number is negative or positive.
The product of a proper fraction and a whole number results in a smaller number than the whole number, maintaining the same basic numerical relationship as multiplying two proper fractions, which also yields a smaller number. However, the key difference lies in the nature of the multiplicands; a whole number has a value greater than or equal to one, while a proper fraction is always less than one. Consequently, when multiplying a proper fraction by a whole number, the result is a proper fraction or whole number, whereas the product of two proper fractions will always be a proper fraction.
