Noah said, "Division always results in a smaller number. When you divide a number by a second number, the result will always be smaller than the first number." Jada said, "I disagree. I think the result can be larger or smaller, depending on the number you are dividing by."

Do you agree with Noah or Jada?

Step-by-step explanation:

Greater, provided the divisor is positive.

It would be more accurate and clearer to say that when dividing a number which is greater than zero by a number between 0 and 1, then the quotient is greater than the dividend.

If the divisor is negative and the dividend is positive, then the quotient is negative (and hence less than the dividend).

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
