Question

Find the fraction that is marked in the following number line:

• A. $\frac{9}{7}$
• B. $\frac{7}{2}$
• C. $\frac{2}{7}$
• D. $\frac{7}{9}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{9}{7}$

In the given number line, 1 is divided into 7 equal parts.

Hence, each part represents $\frac{1}{7}$.

The point is marked 2 parts after 1.

= One whole + Two $\frac{1}{7}$ parts

= 1 + $\frac{2}{7}$

= $\frac{9}{7}$
