Answer 1

.55 difference or 11/20

Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps

(Don't know what the number line looks like)

Convert both to decimals, then subtract

Answer 2

`(-11)/(20)`

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find the difference of fraction using number line

Given fractions
`(1)/(5)-(3)/(4)`

First we make their denominator same,

Multiply numerator and denominator of
`(1)/(5)` by 4 and Multiply numerator and denominator of
`(3)/(4)` by 5

`(4)/(4)* (1)/(5)` and
`(5)/(5)* (3)/(4)`

`(4)/(20)` and
`(15)/(20)`

Now, denominator are same so we can subtract easily

`=(4)/(20)-(15)/(20)`

take L.C.M 20 of above expression,

`=(4-15)/(20)`

`=(-11)/(20)`

we can see this in figure-1

It can easily observe from figure that, there is 11 units difference between 4 and 15
