Final answer:

The task involves creating a fraction less than 1 with a denominator of 4, such as 3/4, and plotting given fractions like 1/2, 2 1/4, 3/4, and -5/11 on a number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is about finding a fraction with a denominator of 4 that is less than 1 and representing certain fractions on a number line.

Steps to Form a Fraction Less Than 1 with a Denominator of 4:

  1. Choose a numerator less than the denominator.
  2. Since the denominator is 4, any number from 1 to 3 can be the numerator.
  3. An example can be ⅓ (3/4).

Representation on a Number Line:

  • 1/2: Mark a point halfway between 0 and 1.
  • 2 1/4: Mark a point at 2 and move one quarter past it.
  • 3/4: Mark a point three quarters of the way from 0 to 1.
  • -5/11: Mark a point to the left of 0, five elevenths of the distance to -1.
