Answer:
In representation of rational numbers on the number line are discussed here. We know how to represent integers on the number line.To represent the integers on the number line, we need to draw a line and take a point O on it. Call it 0 (zero).
Set of equal distances on the right as well as on the left of O. Such a distance is known as a unit length. Let A, B, C, D, etc. be the points of division on the right of 'O' and A',B', C', D', etc. be the points of division on the left of 'O'. If we take OA = 1 unit, then clearly, the point A, B, C, D, etc. represent the integers 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. respectively and the point A', B', C', D', etc. represent the integers -1, -2, -3, -4, etc. respectively.
Thus, we may represent any integer by a point on the number line. Clearly, every positive integer lies to the right of O and every negative integer lies to the left of O.
We can represent rational numbers on the number line in the same way as we have learnt to represent integers on the number line.
In order to represent rational numbers on the number line, first we need to draw a straight line and mark a point O on it to represent the rational number zero. The positive (+ve) rational numbers will be represented by points on the number line lying to the right side of O and negative (-ve) rational numbers.
If we mark a point A on the line to the right of O to represent 1, then OA = 1 unit. Similarly, if we choose a point A' on the line to the left of O to represent -1, then OA' = 1 unit.
plzz..thank..mark as brainly..
