1. For each fraction, divide the number line from 0 to 1 into equal parts based on the denominator.
2. Count the number of parts indicated by the numerator from the left (starting at 0).
3. Mark the point with an "X" at that position.
a. 2/5: Divide the number line into 5 equal parts. Count 2 parts from 0 and mark with "X".
b. 3/7: Divide the number line into 7 equal parts. Count 3 parts from 0 and mark with "X".
c. 5/9: Divide the number line into 9 equal parts. Count 5 parts from 0 and mark with "X".
d. 2/6: Divide the number line into 6 equal parts. Count 2 parts from 0 and mark with "X".
e. 4/7: Divide the number line into 7 equal parts. Count 4 parts from 0 and mark with "X".
f. 1/9: Divide the number line into 9 equal parts. Count 1 part from 0 and mark with "X".
