Katlin divided a fraction by 1/2 the result was a mixed number. was the fraction less than or greater than 1/2? explain.

The fraction was greater than 1/2.

When you divide by a fraction, it is equal to multiplying by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 1/2 is 2/1, or just 2. Therefore, dividing by 1/2 equals the same thing as when you multiply by 2.

A mixed number has a whole number and a fraction added together. So, the mixed number must be greater than 1.

1/2 is equal to 0.5, and 0.5 multiplied by 2 equals 1. A fraction less than 1/2 multiplied by 2 would equal a number less than 1, while a fraction greater than 1/2 would equal a number greater than 1.

Because a mixed number must be greater than 1, and a fraction greater than 1/2 multiplied by 2 would be greater than 1, the fraction that resulted in a mixed number after being multiplied by 2 must have been greater than 1/2.
