Question
Represent the following numbers on the number line. $-4\frac{3}{5}$

Answer

$-4\frac{3}{5}$
Draw a line and take a point $O$ on it.
Let it represent $0.$
Now, From $O$, take $OA, AB, BC, CD, DE$ on the left of $O$, is representing integers $-1, -2, -3, -4, -5$ respectively.
Divide $DE$ into $5$ equal parts and take $3$ equal parts so that $\text{DP}=\frac{3}{5}$
Then $\therefore\text{OP}=-\Big(4+\frac{3}{5}\Big)=-4\frac{3}{5}$ as shown on the number line given below
