To find the total cost of the pencils using the number line, you can follow these steps:
Start at 0 on the number line. Mark 6 parts that are each $0.20. The product 6 × $0.20 represents the total cost, which is $1.20.
So the completed statement would be:
Start at 0 on the number line. Mark 6 parts that are each $0.20. The product 6 × 0.20 represents the total cost, which is $1.20.
