Answer:

No

Explanation:

It will not be because when a number is numtiplied by one, it stays the same. However, both of these are numbers less than 1, so the product will be smaller

Answer:

No, both of the numbers are less than one whole and when you multiply them (I got 4/5) 4/5 is less than both of the factors.
