Description

This image displays a number line divided into sixths, spanning from 0 to 1. The number line is clearly marked at 0, 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, 4/6, 5/6, and 1, with each sixth distinctly labeled. This particular image highlights the fractions from 1/6 to 4/6 on the number line, providing a visual representation of its position relative to the whole.

This visual aid is especially useful for helping students understand the concept of specific fractions on a number line. It reinforces the idea that 4/6 is closer to 1 than it is to 0, and is equivalent to 2/3, aiding in fraction comparison, equivalence, and estimation skills.

Teachers can use this image to discuss the position of 4/6 on the number line, compare it to other fractions like 2/6 or 5/6, and explore its relationship to the whole and to 2/3. This representation supports the development of fraction sense and prepares students for more advanced fraction concepts.
