Question

In a day, 4/7 of the population ride the Ferris wheel. Which of the following number line represents the population that ride the Ferris wheel on that day?

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

The whole number in this problem is 7.

As $\frac{4}{7}$ of the population ride the Ferris wheel.

Hence, 4 out of 7 ride the Ferris wheel.

On this number line, one part is equivalent to $\frac{1}{7}$.

Hence, 4 parts are equivalent to $\frac{4}{7}$.
