Question

Express $\frac{1}{2}$ and $\frac{1}{4}$ on the number lines.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

To plot the numbers on a number line first convert them into decimal form and arrange them in ascending order.
So,
$\frac{1}{4}=0.25$ and $\frac{1}{2}=0.5$
Now, the numbers can be arranged in ascending order as 0 < 0.25 < 0.5 . Hence the following is the correct representation of the given numbers on number line.
