what is the position of c on the number line below? write your answer as a fraction or mixed number.

Explanation:

Step1: Determine unit - length

The distance between 1 and 2 is divided into 4 equal parts. So each part represents $\frac{1}{4}$.

Step2: Count the parts from 1

Point C is 1 part to the right of 1.

Step3: Calculate the position of C

The position of C is $1+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{4 + 1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}=1\frac{1}{4}$.

Answer:

$1\frac{1}{4}$
