How to graph fractions on a graph?
The same way you would graph numbers that are not fractions.
SAMPLE:
Graph 1/2 and 3/4 on the real number line.
<------(-2)------(-1)--------(0)------(1)-------(2)---->
Obviously, where would you put fractions 1/2 and 3/4?
The fractions would easily fit between 0 and 1, right?
The same applies to points on a graph.
SAMPLE:
Graph (2, 3/4) and (0, 1/2) on the xy-plane?
How would you graph these points?
For (2, 3/4), you travel 2 units to the right on the x-axis and 3/4 units UP on the y-axis and plot the point there.
For (0, 1/2), you would NOT travel on the x-axis because of ZERO but you would need to travel 1/2 units UP on the y-axis and plot the point there.
Did you get any of this?
