Answer: Given : points 4 , 1 ,25 , opposite of 3 , -1/2To Find : draw on Number Line Solution :Numbers with a negative sign are less than zeroRight of zero represented by ‘+’ sign and to the left of zero represented by ‘–’ sign.+ sign numbers can be denoted as simply numbers On a number line the number increases as we move to the right and decreases as we move to the left. 1 : Draw a line and mark some points at equal distance on it as shown in the figure below Mark a point as zero on it. Points to the right of zero are positive integers and are marked simply 1, 2, 3 and so on , while points to the left of zero are negative integers and are marked – 1, – 2, – 3 and so on 2. Go 4 unit on right sides from Zero to show 43. Go 3 units on Left from zero to show opposite of 3 4. Divide number line between 1 & 2 in 4 Equal parts and go 1 part right of 15. Divide number line between 0 & -1 in 2 Equal parts and go 1 part left of 0
