Description

This image presents a variation with 2 1/3 graphed on the number line. It shows a number line with whole numbers marked, and a point clearly indicated at 2 1/3, which would be one-third of the way from 2 to 3.

This representation builds on the previous examples, helping students visualize a different mixed number on the number line. It reinforces the concept that mixed numbers can be located precisely between whole numbers and helps students understand how the fractional part determines the exact position.

Teachers can use this image to discuss how to locate mixed numbers with different whole number parts and different fractional parts on a number line. It also provides an opportunity to compare different mixed numbers.

Teacher's Script: "Now we're looking at 2 1/3 on the number line. How is this different from 1 1/4 that we saw earlier? Notice how it's located between 2 and 3. Can you explain why it's positioned where it is? How would this compare to 2 1/2 or 2 2/3?"
