Question

what is the position of f on the number line below? write your answer as a fraction or mixed number.

Explanation:

Step1: Count the intervals

The distance between 1 and 2 is divided into 4 equal - sized intervals.

Step2: Determine the value of each interval

Each interval has a value of $\frac{1}{4}$.

Step3: Find the position of F

F is 3 intervals past 1. So the position of F is $1+\frac{3}{4}=\frac{4 + 3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}=1\frac{3}{4}$.

Answer:

$1\frac{3}{4}$
