Math Problem Statement
Solution
To help you mark the fractions and mixed numbers on the number line, let’s break this into steps and calculations.
Step 1: Understand the divisions on the number line
The number line is divided into 18 equal sections. These divisions help us place the fractions in the correct spots.
Step 2: Convert fractions to equivalent terms based on 18ths
To place the fractions accurately:
Step 3: Mark each value on the number line
