Key Concepts

Number Line

A number line is a visual representation of numbers laid out in a straight line, with equal spacing between consecutive numbers. It is used to illustrate the order, position, and relative magnitude of numbers, including integers, fractions, and decimals.

Fractions

Fractions represent parts of a whole and consist of a numerator and a denominator. They are a way to express numbers that are not whole, illustrating division of a quantity into equal parts.

Negative Numbers

Negative numbers are values that are less than zero and are typically indicated with a minus sign. They are placed to the left of zero on a number line, helping to demonstrate quantities that represent deficits, opposites, or values less than a defined starting point.
