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

$\frac{1}{13}$ is smaller than $\frac{1}{12}$

$\frac{1}{14}$ is smaller than $\frac{1}{13}$

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