Math Problem Statement
Identify the decimals labeled with the letters A and B on the scale below.
Solution
From the image you provided, there is a number line ranging from 0 to 10. The question asks to identify the decimal values for the points labeled A and B on the number line.
- Point A appears to be located halfway between 0 and 1, which suggests that A = 0.5.
- Point B seems to be located halfway between 9 and 10, which suggests that B = 9.5.
