Question

How to represent $\frac{7}{4}$ on the number line?

Answer 1

Represent the given expression on the number line :

A number line is a pictorial representation of numbers on a straight line.

Given, $\frac{7}{4}$

Following steps are performed to plot $\frac{7}{4}$ on the number line

1. Divide the line between the whole numbers into $4$ parts, that is divide the line $0$ to $1$ to $4$ parts, $1$ and $2$ to $4$ parts and so on.
2. Thus, the rational number $\frac{7}{4}$ lies at a distance of $7$ point away from $0$ toward the positive direction.

Hence, $\frac{7}{4}$ can be represented as follows on the number line,
