Answer» Answer: REPRESENTING fractions on number LINE SHOWS the intervals between two integers which will help us to increase the basic concept on formation of fractional numbers. 1. Represent the fractions: 2/5, 11/5, -8/5 and -3/5 on a number line. Since, the denominator of each given fraction is 5; divide the space between EVERY pair of two consecutive integers (on the number line) in 5 equal PARTS. Each part so obtained will represent the fraction 1/5 and the number line obtained will be of the form: Representing Fractions on Number Line To mark 2/5; move two parts on the right-side of zero. To mark 11/5; move eleven parts on the right-side of zero. To mark -8/5; move eight parts on the left-side of zero. To mark -3/5; move three parts on the left-side of zero. |
