Question

The product of two improper fractions is less than both the fractions. Say true or false.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Improper fraction:

An improper fraction is a type of fraction where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator. For example, $\frac{5}{2}$ and $\frac{8}{5}$, are improper fractions.

The product of two improper fractions is more than each of the fractions that are multiplied.

Consider the two improper fractions$,\frac{7}{6}$ and $\frac{6}{3}$

$=\frac{7}{6}\times \frac{6}{3}$

$=\frac{7}{3}$

Now,

$\frac{7}{3}=\frac{14}{6}>\frac{7}{6}$ and $\frac{7}{3}>\frac{6}{3}$

Hence, The product of two improper fractions is less than both the fractions is false statement.
