Question

Explain how showing fractions with models in a number line are alike and different.

Answer 1

Answer:

Showing fractions can be expressed in model and number line.

Using a model, you have to draw the number of parts (denominator) and shade the number of parts (numerator).

Using a number line, the line starts from 0 to the number of the denominator. You put a marker to the number that is the same as the numerator.

Both model and number line use the value of the numerator and denominator. What makes them different is how they are presented. Model can easily be understood compared to number line.

Answer 2

Showing fractions with models is giving a visual and sometimes can be easier to process.They also can be in picture form or other.Ex. A piece of pizza cut into fourths.

Showing fractions on a number line is also giving a visual but still allows you to add and subtract using numbers if that makes sense.Ex.
