How do I put 4/3 on a fraction number line

Answer:

Lets break this down.

4/3 can be simplified as 3/3 and 1/3.

3/3 can also be simplified into 1.

That leaves us with a mixed fraction as 1 1/3.

Now that we know our mixed fraction, we must locate this on a number line.

I drew 3 marks on a number line to demonstrate this, along with a indicator showing where 1 1/3 is.

Since 1 1/3 has one whole, we know that 1 1/3 is greater than 3/3.

We locate 1 on the number line, which is directly in the middle.

Now, we have to move one more to the right, since we have a remaining 1/3.

This leaves us where we are on the photo provided.

Hope this helps! c:
