Exercise #1
Plot the number on the number line below:
Video Solution
Step-by-Step Solution
The number line forms a kind of track, on which there are lines (marks), each representing a number in ascending order,
The numbers go from left to right, meaning on the left side there is always a smaller number, and on the right a larger one.
The spaces between the marks are always fixed, so if we count the "steps" between the numbers we know,
for example between 0.2 and 1, we can see that it's four steps, meaning between each line there is a jump of 0.2.
The question we are being asked is where on the line is 1.4, therefore, we can start from the line that represents the number 1,
and move from it enough steps until we reach 1.4. In this case, it's two steps.
