Question

Find the distance between points A and F​

Answer 1

Answer:  $2\frac{1}{4}$

This is the mixed number 2 & 1/4

whole part = 2

fractional part = 1/4

=======================================================

Explanation:

Each tickmark represents $\frac{1}{4}$

If you count the spaces between points F and A, you should count out exactly 9 spaces as shown in the diagram below.

We'll multiply that value 9 by $\frac{1}{4}$ to get our final answer.

$9*\frac{1}{4} = \frac{9}{4}$

$\frac{9}{4} = \frac{8+1}{4}\\\\\frac{9}{4} = \frac{8}{4}+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{9}{4} = 2+\frac{1}{4}\\\\\frac{9}{4} = 2 \frac{1}{4}$

The result we get is a mixed number 2 & 1/4, meaning the whole part is 2 and the fractional part is $\frac{1}{4}$
