Question

Where do I drop the SUM on the number line? using a number line, drag and drop the word SUM to the correct value on the number line 3/4 + 1 1/4 ​

Answer 1

We need to add fractions 3/4 + 1 1/4 ​ using number line.

First fraction is 3/4.

Please see, we have four small sections from 0 to 1.

3/4 represents three fourth. That is there part of four parts.

So, please plot a point at 3rd point from 0 between 0 and 1.

Then we need to add 1 1/4.

Let us see the fracion part 1/4.

1/4 represents one fourth part.

So, please move one more section from the point we plotted in above step.

We would be on exactly number 1 on the number line after this second step.

Now, we had 1 in front of the mixed fracion 1 1/4.

So, we need to move one number ( complete number) to the right of 1.

We will get on number 2 on number line.

So, the final answer for 3/4 + 1 1/4 is 2 using number line we drew.
