This worksheet lets you practice your number sense. The worksheet begins with students observing an example of how to plot rational number pairs on a number line. They are then tasked with plotting pairs of rational numbers on eight separate number lines. As a bonus, in question 9, they are presented with a longer number line on which they must plot six rational numbers.
Rational numbers are like a family of numbers that includes many different numbers. They include whole numbers, like 1, 2, and 3. But rational numbers are unique because they also include fractions. Negative numbers like -1, -2, or -3 are part of the rational number family. It is important to remember that rational numbers can always be written as fractions.
