Represent each of the following rational numbers on the number line:
(i) 5 (ii) -3
(iii)
(iv)
(v) 1.3
(vi) -2.4 (vii) 
Answer :
(i) Given number = 5
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number 5 is positive so we are going to locate it on the right side of the zero.
(ii) Given = -3
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number is negative (-3) so we are going to locate it on the left side of the zero.
(iii) Given = 5/7
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number is positive so we are going to locate it on the right side of the zero.
(iv) Given = 8/3
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number is positive so we are going to locate it on the right side of the zero.
(v) Given = 1.3
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number 1.3 is positive so we are going to locate it on the right side of the zero.
(vi) Given = -2.4
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number -2.4 is negative so we are going to locate it on the left side of the zero.
(vii) Given = 23/6
First draw a line and mark the origin Zero. The given number is positive so we are going to locate it on the right side of the zero.
