The problem provided asks us to find the length between points \( J \) and \( K \) on a number line. 

Given:
- The total length from \( J \) to \( L \) is 14 units.
- The length from \( K \) to \( L \) is 6 units.

To find the length between \( J \) and \( K \), we can subtract the length from \( K \) to \( L \) from the total length from \( J \) to \( L \):
\[
JK = JL - KL = 14 - 6 = 8.
\]

Thus, the length between \( J \) and \( K \) is \( 8 \) units.

Would you like further explanation on this?

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:
1. How would you solve this problem if the total length was not given?
2. What would the result be if \( KL \) was longer than \( JL \)?
3. How can you apply this concept to a coordinate plane?
4. How do you find the midpoint between two points on a number line?
5. How could this type of problem be solved if additional points were included?

**Tip:** When subtracting distances, always ensure the values are on the same line or axis to avoid confusion.
