Graph the number on a number line 10/7
To graph the number 10/7 on a number line, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Locate 0 on the number line. This will act as your reference point.
Step 2: Divide the number line into equal intervals based on the scale you want to use. For example, you can divide it into tenths or hundredths.
Step 3: Identify the position of the fraction 10/7 relative to the interval divisions. Since 10/7 is greater than 1 (as 7 divides 10 once with a remainder of 3), the fraction 10/7 will be greater than 1 on the number line.
Step 4: Find the interval that represents the value before 10/7 and mark it on the number line. In this case, the nearest whole number before 10/7 is 1. Therefore, locate the point representing 1 on the number line.
Step 5: Determine the additional distance to represent the fraction 3/7 (which is the remainder of 10 divided by 7) on the number line. Divide the interval between 1 and 2 on the number line into seven equal parts. The fraction 3/7 corresponds to three of these parts, starting from the point representing 1.
Step 6: Mark the point where the third division falls in the interval between 1 and 2. This represents the fractional part of 10/7 on the number line.
Once you have completed these steps, you will have graphed the number 10/7 on the number line.
