Question
Represent the following numbers on the number line.
$-1\frac{2}{3}$
$-1\frac{2}{3}$
✓
Answer
$-1\frac{2}{3}$
Draw a line and take a point O on it.
Let it represent 0.
Now, From O, take OA, AB to the left of O, is representing integers -1, -2 respectively,
Divide AB into 3 equal parts and take 2 parts.
Then,
$\text{AP}=\frac{2}{3}$
$\therefore\text{OP}=-\Big(1+\frac{2}{3}\Big)=-1\frac{2}{3}$ Which shown on the number line given below,
