When 1.5 is compared with 3/2 on the number line, what do we get?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Both are equal

To compare a decimal with a fraction, convert one representation into the other. The fraction 3/2 means three divided by two, and 3 ÷ 2 = 1.5. Equivalently, writing 1.5 as a fraction gives 15/10, which reduces by dividing numerator and denominator by 5 to 3/2. Since the two values are exactly equal, they correspond to the same point on the number line, not merely to nearby points. Therefore option A is correct. Option B and option C would require one value to be smaller, but equality has already been established. Option D is also false because opposite numbers have equal magnitudes with opposite signs, such as 1.5 and −1.5; both numbers here are positive and equal. The governing concept is equivalence of decimal and fractional forms.
