1) Plot the numbers 2, 3, 3, 3, 6, 5, 4, 3, 7, 6 on the number line by placing a dot above each number as it appears. The number 3 appears four times, so there will be four dots above 3. The number 6 appears twice, so there will be two dots above 6. The numbers 2, 5, 4, 7 appear once each, so there will be one dot above each of these numbers.
2) Plot the fractions 1/4, 3/4, 1/2, 1 1/4, 1 1/2, 1 3/4, 2 1/4 on the number line by placing a dot above each fraction. The fractions 1/4 and 3/4 are between 0 and 1, with 1/4 at the first mark and 3/4 at the third mark after 0. The fraction 1/2 is at the halfway point between 0 and 1. The fraction 1 1/4 is one and a quarter, so it is one mark after 1. The fraction 1 1/2 is halfway between 1 and 2. The fraction 1 3/4 is three-quarters of the way from 1 to 2. The fraction 2 1/4 is one mark after 2.
