Number Line Fractions<\/h5>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”headingnew”]Concept[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Fractions represent parts of a whole. So, fractions on the number line are represented by making equal parts of a whole i.e. 0 to 1, and the number of those equal parts would be the same as the number written in the denominator of the fraction.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”headingnew”]Rules[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]To plot or write a fraction on a number line:
\nStep 1<\/strong>: Draw a number line<\/a> of a suitable length.
\nStep 2<\/strong>: If the given fraction is a proper fraction, then mark points 0 and 1 on the number line. Or, if it is an improper fraction, then first convert it into a mixed fraction, and then mark two integers between those the given fraction lies. For example, to represent \"\\fn_phv or \"\\fn_phv, mark points 1 and 2 on the number line.
\nStep 3<\/strong>: Draw an equal number of parts of the numbers marked in step 2 which will be equal to the denominator of the fraction.
\nStep 4<\/strong>: Starting from the left point, count forward the number of parts shown by the numerator.
\nStep 5<\/strong>: Mark the point on the line.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”headingnew”]Example[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Graph<\/span> \"\\fn_phv\u00a0on the number line.<\/span><\/strong>
\n<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”headingnew”]Solution[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The line is divided into 6 parts.
\nStarting from the left point, count forward the number of parts shown by the numerator.
\nIn this case the numerator is 4. This fraction will be graphed right next to \"\\fn_phv.<\/p>\n
