Answer:

Any of these are correct:

1/1001, 1/1002, 1/1003

1/2000, 1/2358

1/10000

2/3000= 1/1500

3/4000

so many!

Explanation:

Anything that is positive and not negative will be bigger than zero.

Anything with a 1 on top (numerator) and LARGER than 1000 on the bottom (denominator) will be less than 1/1000.

OR you can change 1/1000 by multiplying 2/2 or 3/3 or 4/4 or 5/5 etc. Then lower the top number only. Example:

1/1000 × 5/5 = 5/5000

(multiply straight across: top×top and bottom×bottom)

Then shrink the top:

3/5000
