Step-by-step solution
4 stepsUnderstand the number.
The number to be represented is . This is a negative rational number. Since , the number lies between and 0 on the number line.
Draw a number line and mark the integers.
Draw a straight line and mark the integers 0 and .
Divide the segment between 0 and .
Since the denominator of the fraction is 7, divide the segment between 0 and into 7 equal parts. Each part represents .
Locate .
Starting from 0, move 4 divisions to the left. The point at the division to the left of 0 represents .
Here is the representation:
\boxed{ \text{ \begin{tikzpicture} \draw[<->] (-2.5,0) -- (0.5,0); \foreach \x in {-2,-1,0} \draw (\x,0.1) -- (\x,-0.1) node[below] {$\x$}; \foreach \x in {0,-0.1428,-0.2857,-0.4285,-0.5714,-0.7142,-0.8571,-1} \draw (\x,0.05) -- (\x,-0.05); \node[above] at (-0.5714, 0.2) {$-\frac{4}{7}$}; \filldraw[black] (-0.5714,0) circle (2pt); \end{tikzpicture} } }
