representation on numberline 6/11
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Representing fractions on number line shows the intervals between two integers which will help us to increase the basic concept on formation of fractional numbers.
1. Represent the fractions: 2/5, 11/5, -8/5 and -3/5 on a number line.
Since, the denominator of each given fraction is 5; divide the space between every pair of two consecutive integers (on the number line) in 5 equal parts. Each part so obtained will represent the fraction 1/5 and the number line obtained will be of the form:
Representing Fractions on Number Line
To mark 2/5; move two parts on the right-side of zero.
To mark 11/5; move eleven parts on the right-side of zero.
To mark -8/5; move eight parts on the left-side of zero.
To mark -3/5; move three parts on the left-side of zero.
The following diagram shows markings of fractions 2/5, 11/5, -8/5 and -3/5 on a number line.
