    In general, a common fraction is said to be a proper fraction if the absolute value of the fraction is strictly less than one—that is, if the fraction is greater than −1 and less than 1. [14] [15] It is said to be an improper fraction, or sometimes top-heavy fraction, [16] if the absolute value of the fraction is greater than or equal to 1 ...

    For example, ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 6 ⁠, and ⁠ −101 / 100 ⁠ are all irreducible fractions. On the other hand, ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠ is reducible since it is equal in value to ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, and the numerator of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ is less than the numerator of ⁠ 2 / 4 ⁠. A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator ...

    The relation not greater than can also be represented by , the symbol for "greater than" bisected by a slash, "not". The same is true for not less than , a ≮ b . {\displaystyle a\nless b.} The notation a ≠ b means that a is not equal to b ; this inequation sometimes is considered a form of strict inequality. [ 4 ]

    More generally, an a-by-b rectangle can be covered with square tiles of side length c only if c is a common divisor of a and b. For example, a 24-by-60 rectangular area can be divided into a grid of: 1-by-1 squares, 2-by-2 squares, 3-by-3 squares, 4-by-4 squares, 6-by-6 squares or 12-by-12 squares.
