Question

Using the number line, write whole numbers up to 50. Which number would be the 10th whole number on the number line?

a) 10
b) 20
c) 30
d) 40

Answer 1

The 10th whole number on a number line up to 50 is 10, considering that you start with 0 as the first whole number. The correct option is a.

Step-by-step explanation:

To write whole numbers up to 50 using the number line, you start with 0 and then write each consecutive whole number until you reach 50. On a number line, the whole numbers are equally spaced. Therefore, the 10th whole number on a number line will be 10, since you count 0 as the first whole number, followed by 1, 2, 3, and so on. So, the correct answer to which number would be the 10th whole number on the number line is option (a) 10.
