Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.48 Represent Fractions on Number Lines and Area Models skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
An area model shows 18/24 shaded. A number line is divided into eighths. Which strategy correctly matches the model to the number line?
ASimplify 18/24 to 3/4, then use 6/8, the sixth tick after 0
BSimplify 18/24 to 3/8, then use the third tick after 0
CUse 18/8 because the number line has eighths
DUse 24/18, then count 24 ticks after 0
Solution & Explanation:The fraction 18/24 simplifies to 3/4. On an eighths line, 3/4 equals 6/8, so the matching point is the sixth tick.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A number line from 0 to 2 has each whole divided into 12 equal parts. Point U is on the 21st tick after 0. Which simplified mixed number names Point U?
A1 1/4
B1 3/4
C1 9/12
D2 1/12
Solution & Explanation:The point is 21/12. This is 1 whole and 9/12, and 9/12 simplifies to 3/4, so the mixed number is 1 3/4.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Which model does NOT correctly represent 5/6?
A6 equal parts with 5 shaded
B12 equal parts with 10 shaded
C18 equal parts with 15 shaded
D10 equal parts with 8 shaded
Solution & Explanation:The first three models show 5/6 or equivalent fractions. The last model shows 8/10, which simplifies to 4/5, not 5/6.
