Math Problem Statement
Solution
The scale in the image runs from 0 to 2, with A and B marked at specific points. The question asks to identify the decimal values corresponding to points A and B on this number line.
Here is the breakdown:
-
The interval between 0 and 2 is divided into 4 equal parts.
- Since there are 4 divisions, each part represents .
-
Point A is located at the first tick after 0, which represents .
-
Point B is located at the third tick after 0, which represents .
Thus:
- Letter A represents .
- Letter B represents .

Here are 5 related questions to deepen your understanding:
- How would the positions change if the number line went from 0 to 4 instead of 0 to 2?
- What is the decimal value of a point exactly halfway between 1 and 2 on this number line?
- If another point, C, was placed between A and B, what would its decimal value be?
- How would you determine the value of A and B if the scale had 8 equal divisions instead of 4?
- Can you convert the values for A and B into fractions?
Tip: Always check how many divisions a number line is split into, as this helps you accurately determine the value at each tick mark.
