Question

Show the following numbers on a number line. Draw a separate number line for each example.
(1) $\frac{3}{2},\frac{5}{2},\frac{-3}{2}$
(2) $\frac{7}{5},\frac{-2}{5},\frac{-4}{5}$
(3) $\frac{-5}{8},\frac{11}{8}$
(4) $\frac{13}{10},\frac{-17}{10}$

Answer 1

(1) Since all the fractions are like fractions i.e denominators are same which is $2$, hence we will divide each interval of the number line into two equal parts.

$\frac{3}{2},\frac{5}{2},\frac{-3}{2}$ can be represented on the number line as follows.

(2) Since all the fractions are like fractions i.e denominators are same which is $5$, hence we will divide each interval of the number line into five equal parts.

$\frac{7}{5},\frac{-2}{5},\frac{-4}{5}$ can be represented on the number line as follows.

(3) Since all the fractions are like fractions i.e denominators are same which is $8$, hence we will divide each interval of the number line into eight equal parts.

$\frac{-5}{8},\frac{11}{8}$ an be represented on the number line as follows.

(4) Since all the fractions are like fractions i.e denominators are same which is $10$, hence we will divide each interval of the number line into ten equal parts.

$\frac{13}{10},\frac{-17}{10}$ can be represented on the number line as follows.
