Answer:
The number line is divided by 6ths.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 6 equally sized spaces between 0 and 1 on a number line. By definition of a fraction, a quantity is divided upon a number of equal parts in which can be expressed as the number of parts divided by the total number of parts. Therefore, the numerator in this case will be how many of the 6 parts are there at a certain point; the denominator will be 6, since there are 6 total, equal parts. In this case, think of the fraction as a distance traveled from 0 to 1 in 6 parts; the numerator is how far is traveled, and the denominator is the total travel distance. Point A is located at 1/6, since it is 1 out of the 6 pieces traveled. Point D would be at 5/6 because it has traveled 5 out of the 6 distances.
1. Draw a circle
2. Keeping your compasses open the same distance stick the point on the edge of the circle and draw two little arcs that cut the circle.
3. Stick the point in one the arcs and draw another arc further along the circle. Repeat until you have 6 arcs marked.
4. Use a ruler or straight edge to join up the arcs.
3/7 is 0.42 and 2/5 is 0.4. Therefor 3/7ths is bigger
