Question

Which of the following are proper fractions?

$\frac{1}{8},\frac{2}{5},\frac{16}{21},\frac{23}{10},3,\frac{8}{17}$

Answer 1

We know that,

A proper fraction has numerator less then its denominator.

Then,

$\frac{1}{8},\frac{2}{5},\frac{16}{21}$ and $\frac{8}{17}$ are proper fractions.

$\frac{23}{10}$ and $3$ are not proper fractions.
