Question

Represent the following fractions on a number line:

$\frac{17}{5}$

Answer 1

Let us first write $\frac{17}{5}$as a mixed fraction so it becomes $3\frac{2}{5}$.

Next, divide the line segment on the number line 3 and 4 into 5( denominator of fraction part ) equal parts.

Now, mark the 2nd ( numerator of fraction part ) point as M, and the point M represents $\frac{17}{5}$ or $3\frac{2}{5}$.
