Answer:

Yes unless the fraction is equal to a whole number or is an improper fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal fraction like 2/4 is less than a whole number because a whole number is whole and a fraction is part of

Exceptions:

4/4 is a fraction but is also a whole number

any improper fraction ( a fraction not simplified)

5/4 it equals more than a whole number 1 1/4

So simplify the fraction and if it is equal to or more than a whole number you know, but if it is less than a whole number then you know it is less.

Hopefully this helped :)

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction is a part of a whole number, so yes a fraction is always less than a whole number, unless it's a mixed number. A mixed number is when there is a whole number before the fraction.

What is -3 - 9n= 42 I can’t be negative

maw [93]

If you were to correctly simplify this equation, the answer would be a negative.

The answer is: n = -5

Here's how I got my answer:

Step 1: Add 3 to both sides. Which leaves us with $-9n=42+3$

Step 2: Simplify $42+3$ to 45. Which leaves us with $-9n = 45$

Step 3: Divide both sides by -9. Which leaves us with $n = -45/9$

Step 4: Simplify $-45/9$ , to get your answer, n = -5.

Juanita begins to factor an expression as shown. x2+3x−18=(x+)(x−) What numbers should be placed in the boxes from left to right

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Option A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to factorize x²+3x−18

The coefficient of x is 3 and the constant is -18

Which means

The sum of factors is 3

The product of factors is -18

The factors satisfying are 6 and -3

Here the factors are given in the type (x+)(x−)

So the value after plus is 6 and value after - is 3

Option A is the correct answer.
