Want this question answered?
Dividing a number by a decimal always gives a number greater than the dividend. Some decimal numbers are bigger than 1, eg 506.23 , so the answer is less. The statement "a number greater than you" has no meaning so the question cannot be properly understood.
The quotient need not be greater than a whole number less than one!
greater than
The quotient is less than the fraction.
0.9
less than
Greater the divisor is less than 1,so the quotient is greater than the dividend

I have no idea about the quotation, but the quotient is less than the divisor.
True.
The answer depends on the sign of the numbers.(1/4) / 2 = 1/8, which is smaller.(-1/4) / 2 = -1/8, which is greater.

Yes, but this is true of not just unit fractions but any positive number.

No. The quotient is less than or greater than the dividend, depending on the sign of the fraction.4 / (1/2) = 8, which is greater than 4.4 / (-1/2) = -8, which is smaller than 4.-4 / (1/2) = -8, which is smaller than -4.-4 / (-1/2) = 8, which is greater than -4.
Generally, the quotient of a whole number divided by a fraction will be greater than that whole number, because division is simply multiplying the dividend by the reciprocal of the divisor. For instance: 2 / (1/2) = 2 * (2/1)
5000 will be greater and -5000 will be less than.
