Question

How can we tell if a fraction is less that greater than or equal to 1?

Answer 1

If the number on top is bigger than the number on the bottom then it is more than one. if the number on the top is smaller then the number on the bottom then it is less than one. if the bottom and top number are the same then it is 1.

Answer 2

If the numerator is less than the denominator, then the fraction is less than 1.
E.g.: 3/4 < 1, because 3 < 4.

If the numerator is larger than the denominator, then the fraction is greater than 1.
E.g.: 5/4 > 1, because 5 > 4.

If the numerator is equal to the denominator, then the fraction is equal to 1.
E.g.: 9/9= 1, because 9=9.

Hope this helps~
