represent 15/4 and- 15/4 on the number line
Answers
Hope this will help u.....
The number -15/4 will be plotted left side of the number line between -3 and -4, whereas 15/4 will be plotted right side of the number line between 3 and 4.
Given,
The numbers are 15/4 and -15/4
To Find,
Representation on a number line.
Given,
Before solving the question, let's understand the concept of the number line.
It is a diagrammatic representation of numbers in a straight line. Numbers can be compared and ordered using it. You can represent any real number, including whole and natural numbers.
Left-hand integers are smaller than right-hand integers. The numerals 0 and -1 are less than one another, the numerals -2 and -1 are less than one another, and so on.
- Number lines are useful for explaining arithmetic operations on numbers.
- The first step is to learn how to locate numbers on a number line. Number lines have a zero as their middle point.
- Negative numbers occupy the left side of zero on the number line, while all positive numbers occupy the right side.
- The value of a number decreases as we move towards the left.
Now, let's solve the question,
On simplifying the number 15/4,
We get,
=3.7 and -3.7.
So, the number will lie between 3 and 4 on the number line.
The number -3.7 will be placed on the left side of the number line after zero.
The number 3.7 will be placed on the right side of the number line after zero.
The number -15/4 will be plotted left side of the number line between -3 and -4, whereas 15/4 will be plotted right side of the number line between 3 and 4.
