Description

This image shows the graph of 1 1/4 on a number line. It displays a number line with whole numbers marked, and a point clearly indicated at 1 1/4, which would be halfway between 1 and 1 1/2.

This representation helps students visualize where mixed numbers fall on a number line, reinforcing their understanding of how mixed numbers relate to whole numbers and fractions. It provides a concrete way to see that 1 1/4 is more than 1 but less than 2.

Teachers can use this image to discuss how mixed numbers can be located on a number line and to reinforce the concept that mixed numbers represent values between whole numbers.

Teacher's Script: "Here we see 1 1/4 on a number line. Notice how it's located between 1 and 2. Can you see that it's a quarter of the way from 1 to 2? How would this help us compare 1 1/4 to other numbers, like 1 1/2 or 1 3/4?"
