Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

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

Since there are 3 in total, we'll define the 0 point as the fraction:

03 \frac{0}{3}

We will also define 1 as the following fraction:

33 \frac{3}{3}

Now let's fill in each point on the line to find out which numbers are missing:

Answer

23 \frac{2}{3}
