When you divide two fractions how can you tell if the quotient is greater then 1?

To determine if the quotient of two fractions is greater than 1, compare the two fractions directly. If the numerator (the first fraction) is greater than the denominator (the second fraction), the quotient will be greater than 1. Alternatively, you can convert the division of fractions into multiplication by flipping the second fraction and multiplying; if the result is greater than 1, the original quotient is also greater than 1.


When is the product of two fractions greater than its factors?

That only happens if they're both improper fractions, i.e. greater than ' 1 '.

Two positive improper fractions are multiplied the product is sometimesalwaysor never that 1?

When two positive improper fractions are multiplied, the product is never 1. An improper fraction is one where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator, so when you multiply two such fractions, the resulting product is always greater than 1. Therefore, the statement is "never."
