Question

Pls help to find the coordinate on the line. Will mark brainliest. Thank you!!!

Answer 1

The coordinate of point R is 11/40, so the correct option is C.

How to find the coordinate of point R?

On the number line we can see that:

M = -1/4

T = 5/8

There are 5 segments between T and M, and the difference between T and M is:

5/8 - (-1/4) = 5/8 + 2/8 = 7/8

The measure of each segment will be equal to:

m = (7/8)/5 = 7/(8*5) = 7/40

Now, coordinate R is 2 segments to the left of T, so the coordinate of point R is given by:

R = 5/8 - 2*(7/40)

R = 25/40 - 14/40 = 11/40

The correct option is C.
