Question

000???111

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

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

Since there are 4 in total, we'll define the 0 point as the following fraction:

04 \frac{0}{4}

We can also define 1 as follows:

44 \frac{4}{4}

Finally, we can fill in each point on the number line to work out which number is represented by the question mark:

Answer

34 \frac{3}{4}
