3. less than 1 4/5

4. more than 1 16/5= 3 1/5

5. more than 6/5= 1 1/5

6. more than 5/4=1 1/4

Answer 2

Answer:

4×1/4

8×2/5

6×1/5

5×1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction ( ≠ 1 ) is called greater than 1 if,

Numerator > denominator,

Otherwise it is less than 1,

$4\times \frac{1}{4}$ $=\frac{4}{4}$ = 1

$4\times \frac{2}{9}$ $=\frac{8}{9}$

∵ 8 < 9

$\implies 4\times \frac{2}{9} < 1$

$2\times \frac{2}{5}$ $=\frac{4}{5}$

∵ 4 < 5

$\implies 2\times \frac{2}{5} < 1$

$8\times \frac{2}{5}$ $=\frac{16}{5}$

∵ 16 > 5

$\implies 8\times \frac{2}{5} > 1$

$6\times \frac{1}{5}$ $=\frac{6}{5}$

∵ 6 > 5

$\implies 6\times \frac{1}{5} > 1$

$5\times \frac{1}{4}$ $=\frac{5}{4}$

∵ 5 > 4

$\implies 5\times \frac{1}{4} > 1$
