Fractions on the Number Line
Any fractional number can be represented on a number line which is known
as fractions on the number line. Here we will learn how to represent
fraction on a number line. We will also learn how to add or subtract
with the help of a fraction number line.
Follow the examples step-by-step how to add or subtract using a fraction number line.
1. Calculate the sum of 3/10 + 4/10 on the fraction number line.
3/10 + 4/10
= (3 + 4)/10
= 7/10
2. Calculate 3/5 + 2/5 on the fraction number line.
3/5 + 2/5
= (3 + 2)/5
= 5/5
= 1/1
= 1.
3. Find the different on the fraction number line
7/8 - 3/8
7/8 - 3/8
= 4/8 ÷ 4/4
= 1/2
4. Find the difference of 9/10 and 7/10
9/10 - 7/10
= 2/10 or 2/10 ÷ 2/2
= 1/5
