The following numbers are shown on the number line: −1.8, 0.8, 3.1, −1.2, 2 3/4. Which number is represented by point B?

1 answer

To determine which number is represented by point B, we need to match the numbers to their corresponding points on the number line.

First, let's arrange the numbers in ascending order:
-1.8, -1.2, 0.8, 2 3/4, 3.1

Next, we identify the point B on the number line. Counting from left to right, we can see that point B is between -1.2 and 0.8.

Therefore, the number represented by point B is between -1.2 and 0.8.
