Question

Subtract using the number line -3/5-(2/5) select the location on the number line to plot the point

Answer 1

if you had a number line from 1 to 0 than zoom in in between 1 and 0 and look at it in fifths you can start a 3/5 and go back 2 to get 1/5

Answer 2

-1

Explanation:

Let us divide
`(3)/(5)`

`-(3)/(5)=-0.6`

Let us divide
`(2)/(5)`

`(2)/(5)=0.4`

When we subtract them we get

`-(3)/(5)-(2)/(5)\\ =-0.6-0.4\\ =-1`

In the number line one small division is 0.1 and one big division is 1 unit.

Hence, the final point on the number line will be -1
