The total distance from the core to the crust on a horizontal number line would be 149 miles (core) + 825 miles (mantle) + 63 miles (crust) = 1037 miles. To represent this on a number line, you would mark off 149 miles, then continue adding 825 miles and finally add 63 miles. The total distance from the mantle to the crust on a horizontal number line would be 825 miles (mantle) + 63 miles (crust) = 888 miles. To represent this on a number line, you would mark off 825 miles and then add 63 miles.
