Navigating Fractions and Decimals on the Number Line

This video tutorial covers the placement of fractions and decimals on a number line. It begins with an introduction to how fractions and decimals, like integers, can be represented on a number line. The tutorial then explores fractions, focusing on sixths and their equivalents, such as halves and thirds. It explains how these fractions can be mirrored along zero towards negative infinity. The video then shifts to decimals, starting with tenths and moving to smaller units like hundredths and thousandths, demonstrating their placement on the number line. The tutorial concludes with a reminder to be kind to oneself and others.
