Which of the following pairs represents the same point on the number line?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(\frac{3}{4}\) and 0.75
Converting \(\frac{3}{4}\) into decimal form gives \(3 \div 4=0.75\). Therefore, \(\frac{3}{4}\) and 0.75 represent the same point on the number line. The other pairs are unequal; for example, \(\frac{2}{5}=0.4\), not 0.25. Exam tip: convert the fraction into decimal form and compare the values.
