Given : points 4 , 1 ,25 , opposite of 3 , -1/2
To Find : draw on Number Line
Solution :
Numbers with a negative sign are less than zero
Right of zero represented by ‘+’ sign and to the left of zero represented by ‘–’ sign.
+ sign numbers can be denoted as simply numbers
On a number line the number increases as we move to the right and decreases as we move to the left.
1 : Draw a line and mark some points at equal distance on it as shown in the figure below Mark a point as zero on it. Points to the right of zero are positive integers and are marked simply 1, 2, 3 and so on , while points to the left of zero are negative integers and are marked – 1, – 2, – 3 and so on
2. Go 4 unit on right sides from Zero to show 4
3. Go 3 units on Left from zero to show opposite of 3
4. Divide number line between 1 & 2 in 4 Equal parts and go 1 part right of 1
5. Divide number line between 0 & -1 in 2 Equal parts and go 1 part left of 0
