Question

Jim has to locate the fraction $\frac{11}{3}$ on number line. Between which two numbers would he locate it?

• A. 1 and 2
• B. 2 and 3
• C. 3 and 4
• D. 4 and 5

Answer 1

The correct option is C 3 and 4

The fraction $\frac{11}{3}$ can be written as:
$3\left)11\right(3-9\_\_\_\_\_\_\_2$
$\frac{11}{3}=3\frac{2}{3}$
So, this number is bigger than 3 but smaller than 4.
Hence, it lies between 3 and 4 on the number line.
