The image contains a math problem asking to identify the correct horizontal number line that shows four numbers:

• $\frac{8}{3}$
• $-5$
• $-1.6$
• $3 \frac{1}{4}$

plotted correctly.

Let's break down each number and its approximate position on the number line:

1. $\frac{8}{3} = 2.67$ (A little less than 3, so it should be placed between 2 and 3.)
2. $-5$ (This is a whole number, so it will be directly at -5.)
3. $-1.6$ (This is slightly between -1 and -2, closer to -2.)
4. $3 \frac{1}{4} = 3.25$ (A little more than 3, so between 3 and 4.)

Based on this:

• We need a number line that has these points placed approximately at the correct positions, as described above.
• The correct answer from the image is highlighted and marked on the second option, which appears to place these values in the correct positions.
