Answer 1

A fraction in which the numerator is greater than the denominator is an improper fraction.
$(a) \frac{1 2}{1 5} :$ Here $12 < 15 \Rightarrow$ Numerator $<$ Denominator.Hence it is not an improper fraction.
$(b) \frac{1 3}{1 7} :$ Here $13 < 17 \Rightarrow$ Numerator $<$ Denominator.Hence it is not an improper fraction.
$(c) \frac{1 6}{2 1} :$ Here $16 < 21 \Rightarrow$ Numerator $<$ Denominator.Hence it is not an improper fraction.
$(d) \frac{2 5}{1 1} :$ Here $25 > 11 \Rightarrow$ Numerator $>$ Denominator.Hence it is an improper fraction.
