Answer:

Greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing a number by a fraction is the same as multiplying it by the reciprocal of the fraction (swap the numerator and denominator).  [tex]\frac{A}{\frac{B}{C}} = A*\frac{C}{B}[/tex]

If the fraction is < 1, then the reciprocal is > 1, and multiplying a number A by another number  B > 1 will always be greater than A by itself.
