Question

Find the fraction les than one twelfths. Find another fraction less than the fraction you found. Can you continue this process? Is there a “smallest” fraction greater than 0? Explain.

Answer 1

`(1)/(13)` is smaller than
`(1)/(12)`

`(1)/(14)` is smaller than
`(1)/(13)`

There is no smallest fraction greater than zero because there is no limit to how big the denominator of a fraction can be.
