Answer:
You can plot a rational number on a number line by drawing the number line.
Question example:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First find out will lay in between which two numbers. So, you will have to divide 5÷2.
- We just have to see if it comes 0•something. If it is 1•somthing, 2•something how will it work?
- 0•something means it's between 0 and 1.
- 1•something means between 1 and between 2.
- 2•something means 2 and between 3.
2) Now the answer u get when you divide 5 and 2 is 0•4 it means the number is between 0 and 1 .
- What is 1?
- -2 is a negative number so it's not 0 and 1, it lays in between 0 and -1.
3)Draw a number line, leave space between 0 and -1 because we will have to plot the numbers.
- We know will lay in between 0 and -1
4) Now see the denominator, in this question it is 5, so you will have to divide 0 and -1 (on the number) into 5 parts.
5) from 0 starts , ,, and -1 you can take it as (but don't mark it)
6) We had to plot , we see marked in between 0 and -1 so mark them or circle that number, that's the answer
