Where is 4/6 on a number line between 0 and 1

Answer 1

To locate \( \frac{4}{6} \) on a number line between 0 and 1, you can first simplify the fraction.

\[ \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} \]

Now, to find \( \frac{2}{3} \) on a number line, divide the segment between 0 and 1 into three equal parts since the denominator is 3. This gives you:

1. The first point, which is \( \frac{1}{3} \).
2. The second point, which is \( \frac{2}{3} \).
3. The last point is 1.

Therefore, \( \frac{2}{3} \) (or \( \frac{4}{6} \)) is located two-thirds of the way from 0 to 1 on the number line. It lies after \( \frac{1}{3} \) and before 1.
