To determine the positions of -3/8 and -1 on the number line, we can compare their values.
In this case, we have -3/8 > -1. This inequality tells us that -3/8 is greater than -1.
To understand this in terms of the number line, we can see that the numbers increase as we move to the right on the number line. So, if -1 is to the right of -3/8, it means that -3/8 is located on the left of -1 on the number line.
Therefore, the correct answer is "negative 3 over 8 is located to the left of −1."
