Step-by-step solution

Let's look at the number line and locate the letters:

F=0 F=0

Therefore:

0=0 0=0

F=0 F=0

Final Answer

F=0 F=0

Key Points to Remember

Essential concepts to master this topic
  • Zero Location: Find where point F is positioned on the number line
  • Reading Values: Point F aligns with 0 on the labeled scale below
  • Comparison Check: F = 0, so F equals zero, not greater or less ✓

Common Mistakes

Avoid these frequent errors
  • Confusing point position with point name
    Don't assume F > 0 just because F comes after E in the alphabet = wrong comparison! Letter names don't determine number values on a number line. Always read the numerical value directly below each point.

FAQ

Everything you need to know about this question

How do I know which number each point represents?

+

Look directly below each point on the number line. The numerical labels (-5, -4, -3, etc.) tell you the exact value of each lettered point.

Why is F = 0 and not F > 0 or F < 0?

+

Point F sits exactly on the zero mark of the number line. When a number equals zero, it's neither positive nor negative - it's exactly at the dividing point!

What does the question F ? 0 mean?

+

The question asks you to compare point F's value to zero using symbols: < < (less than), = = (equal to), > > (greater than), or \neq (not equal to).

Can a point be exactly on zero?

+

Yes! Zero is a real number with its own position on the number line. When a point lands exactly on zero, its value is neither positive nor negative.

How do I read negative numbers on a number line?

+

Numbers to the left of zero are negative (like -1, -2, -3), while numbers to the right of zero are positive (like 1, 2, 3). Zero itself is neutral.
