Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Find the highlighted number
00:04 It seems the axis is divided into 11 segments
00:10 Let's count each segment
00:34 Let's see which segment is highlighted
00:39 And this is the solution to the question

Step-by-Step Solution

Let's first count how many points, including the number 1, there are on the number line.

Since there are 11 in total, we'll define the 0 point as the following fraction:

011 \frac{0}{11}

We will also define 1 as the following fraction:

1111 \frac{11}{11}

Now let's fill in each point on the sequence to discover what our missing number is:

Answer

1011 \frac{10}{11}
