Exploring Rational Numbers on a Number Line

The video tutorial explains how to plot rational numbers on a number line when the numerator is less than the denominator. It demonstrates plotting positive and negative rational numbers like 1/2, -1/2, 3/4, and -3/4. The tutorial also covers dividing the number line into equal parts based on the denominator and marking points according to the numerator. Additionally, it explains the concept of corresponding values for positive and negative rational numbers and provides an understanding of intermediate points like 1/4 and 2/4.

What is the category of rational numbers where the numerator is less than the denominator?

• Numerator is zero

• Numerator greater than denominator

• Numerator equal to denominator

• Numerator less than denominator

Where does the rational number '1/2' lie on the number line?

• At 0

• Between -1 and 0

• Between 0 and 1

• Between 1 and 2

How many equal parts do we divide the segment between 0 and 1 to plot '1/2'?

• 2 parts

• 4 parts

• 3 parts

• 1 part

Where is '-1/2' plotted on the number line?

• Between 1 and 2

• At 0

• Between -1 and 0

• Between 0 and 1

What does the numerator tell us when plotting a rational number?

• The length of the number line

• The number of equal parts to divide

• The position of 1

• The number of parts from 0

Where does the rational number '3/4' lie on the number line?

• Between 0 and 1

• At 0

• Between -1 and 0

• Between 1 and 2

How many equal parts do we divide the segment between 0 and 1 to plot '3/4'?

• 5 parts

• 4 parts

• 3 parts

• 2 parts

Where is '-3/4' plotted on the number line?

• Between 1 and 2

• At 0

• Between -1 and 0

• Between 0 and 1

What is the value of '1/4' on the number line?

• Four parts from 0

• Three parts from 0

• Two parts from 0

• One part from 0

Do you need to mark all points when asked to plot '3/4' and '-3/4'?

• No, if the numerator is less than the denominator

• No, only the specified points

• Yes, always

• Yes, if the denominator is 4
