Question

Identify the correct point on the number line for each fraction. (5 and 6)

Answer 1

There are 10 marks between 7 and 8, therefore each mark is equivalent to 0.1

For 8.3, count 3 marks after 8:
$8.3 \longrightarrow B$

First convert the fraction into decimal. Then count 6 marks from 7:
$7\dfrac{3}{5} = 7.6 \longrightarrow C$

Answer 2

Hey there :)

The number line has 0.1 spacing in between
                                          C    A                               D    B
<-|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--
  7    7.1   7.2  7.3  7.4  7.5 7.6  7.7   7.8  7.9   8   8.1  8.2 8.3

5. 8.3 ____ Since, they are spaced with a difference of 0.1, 8.3 is after the 8 on the number line. 

Therefore, point B is at 8.3

6. $7 \frac{3}{5}$ ____
$7\frac{3}{5}$ is 7.6

Therefore, point C is at $7 \frac{3}{5}$
