$\frac{6}{6}$

Now let's fill in each point on the number line to discover which number is represented by the question mark:

Let's count how many points, including the number 1, there are on the number line.

Since there are 6 in total, we'll define the 0 point as the fraction:

$\frac{0}{6}$

We'll also define 1 as the following fraction:

$\frac{6}{6}$

Now let's fill in each point on the sequence to discover which numbers are missing:

Let's first try to understand what numbers are greater and smaller than the number $\frac{6}{5}$.

Since the denominator is 5, both the larger and smaller numbers will also have a denominator of 5:

\frac{?}{5}<\frac{6}{5}<\frac{?}{5}

Now let's complete the numerators with numbers that will help us reach whole numbers or half numbers in the fractions as follows:

\frac{5}{5}<\frac{6}{5}<\frac{7.5}{5}

Let's now simplify the fractions as follows:

$\frac{5:5}{5:5}=\frac{1}{1}=1$

$\frac{7.5:5}{5:5}=\frac{1.5}{1}=1.5=1\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the answer is:

1<\frac{6}{5}<1\frac{1}{2}

Since the denominator is 8, both the larger and smaller numbers will also have a denominator of 8:

\frac{?}{8}<\frac{7}{8}<\frac{?}{8}

Now let's complete the numerators with numbers that will help us reach whole numbers or half numbers in fractions as follows:

\frac{4}{8} < \frac{7}{8} < \frac{8}{8}

Next, we will simplify the fractions as follows:

$\frac{4:4}{8:4}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{8:8}{8:8}=\frac{1}{1}=1$

Therefore, the answer is:

\frac{1}{2}<\frac{7}{8}<1

Let's try to understand what is bigger and what is smaller than the number $\frac{3}{5}$

Since the denominator is 5, both the larger and smaller numbers will also have a denominator of 5:

\frac{?}{5}<\frac{3}{5}<\frac{?}{5}

Now let's complete the numerators with numbers that will help us reach whole numbers in fractions as follows:

\frac{0}{5}<\frac{3}{5}<\frac{5}{5}

Let's reduce the fractions as follows:

$\frac{0}{5}=0$

$\frac{5:5}{5:5}=\frac{1}{1}=1$

In other words, the fraction is between 0 and 1.

Let's try to find a smaller range, meaning consecutive numbers before and after the fraction's numerator as follows:

\frac{1}{5}<\frac{3}{4}<\frac{4}{5}

Let's try to understand what is bigger and what is smaller than the number $\frac{1}{4}$

Since the denominator is 4, both the larger and smaller numbers will have a denominator of 4:

\frac{?}{4}<\frac{1}{4}<\frac{?}{4}

Now let's complete the numerators with numbers that will help us reach whole numbers in fractions as follows:

\frac{0}{4}<-\frac{3}{4}<\frac{4}{4}

Let's proceed to reduce the fractions as follows:

$\frac{0}{4}=0$

$\frac{4:4}{4:4}=-\frac{1}{1}=1$

This means the fraction is between 0 and 1

But since the consecutive numbers for the fraction's numerator are:

\frac{0}{4} < \frac{1}{4} < \frac{2}{4}

\frac{0}{4} < \frac{1}{4} < \frac{3}{4}

We can see that all the answers are correct

Let's try to understand what is larger and what is smaller than the number $\frac{3}{4}$.

Since the denominator is 4, both the larger and smaller numbers will also have a denominator of 4:

\frac{?}{4} < \frac{3}{4} < \frac{?}{4}

Now let's complete the numerators with the numbers before and after 3 as follows:

\frac{2}{4} < \frac{3}{4} < \frac{4}{4}

Now we can simplify the fractions like this:

$\frac{2:2}{4:2}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{4:4}{4:4}=\frac{1}{1}=1$

Therefore, the answer is:

\frac{1}{2} < \frac{3}{4} < 1
