Q4 :
Draw the number line and represent the following rational numbers on it:

(i) (ii)

(iii) (iv)

Answer :

(i)
This fraction represents 3 parts out of 4 equal parts. Therefore, each space between two integers on number line must be divided
into 4 equal parts.

can be represented as

(ii)
This fraction represents 5 parts out of 8 equal parts. Negative sign represents that it is on the negative side of number line.
Therefore, each space between two integers on number line must be divided into 8 equal parts.

can be represented as

(iii)
This fraction represents 1 full part and 3 parts out of 4 equal parts. Negative sign represents that it is on the negative side of number
line. Therefore, each space between two integers on number line must be divided into 4 equal parts.

can be represented as

(iv)
This fraction represents 7 parts out of 8 equal parts. Therefore, each space between two integers on number line must be divided
into 8 equal parts.

Q5 :
The points P, Q, R, S, T, U, A and B on the number line are such that,
TR = RS = SU and AP = PQ = QB. Name the rational numbers represented by P, Q, R and S.

Answer :

Distance between U and T = 1 unit


It is divided into 3 equal parts.

TR = RS = SU =

R=

S=
Similarly,
AB = 1 unit

It is divided into 3 equal parts.

P=
