Question

Select the locations on the number line to plot the points −2/12 and 6/12 .

Answer 1

i just did the test

Explanation:

Answer 2

The given number are

`-(2)/(12)` and
`(6)/(12)`

Observe that each number can be simplify at follows

`-(2)/(12)=-(1)/(6)`

`(6)/(12)=(1)/(2)`

So, the number we need to place are
`-(1)/(6)` and
`(1)/(2)`.

The image attached shows the number line with these numbers. The negative number must be on the left side of the zero, and the positve number must be on the right side of the zero.

Remeber that 3/6 is equal to 1/2. Also, when we graph fractions, we can just graph number with the same denominator, that way we would place each fraction in the right order.
