Open in App
Solution

We have to represent the fractions 25, 35, 85, 45 on the number line.

The denominator of the given fractions is 5.

Also, 25, 35, 45 are less than one.

So, we divide the gap between 0 and 1(on the number line) into 5 equal parts.

Now, 85 is an improper fraction(fractions having numerator greater than the denominator).

So we will first convert it into a mixed fraction.

To convert an improper fraction into mixed fraction we follow the given steps:

(i) Divide the numerator by the divisor, to obtain the quotient and the remainder.

(ii) The mixed fraction is represented as Quotientremainderdivisor.

, 85 can be written as 135.

To represent 135 on the number line, we will divide the length between 1 and 2(on the number line), into five equal parts.

The fractions 25, 35, 85, 45 are represented on the number line as shown below.
