Question
Represent the following numbers on the number line. $-3\frac{1}{7}$
✓
Answer
$-3\frac{1}{7}$
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 $-1, -2, -3, -4$
Divide $CD$ into $7$ equal parts and take $1$ parts at $P.$
Then,
$\text{CP}=\frac{1}{7}$
$\therefore\text{OP}=\text{OC}+\text{CP}$
$-\Big(3+\frac{1}{7}\Big)=-3\frac{1}{7}$ as shown on the number line given below,
