Question 1.
Draw number lines and locate the points on them:

Solution:

Here, we divide the length between 0 and 1 into 4 equal parts, then, we have:
(frac { 1 }{ 4 } ) is denoted by the point B.
(frac { 1 }{ 2 } ) is denoted by the point C.
(frac { 3 }{ 4 } ) is denoted by the point D.
(frac { 4 }{ 4 } ) is denoted by the point E.

From the figure, we have:
(frac { 1 }{ 8 } ) is denoted by the point B.
(frac { 2 }{ 8 } ) is denoted by the point C.
(frac { 3 }{ 8 } ) is denoted by the point D.
(frac { 7 }{ 8 } ) is denoted by the point H.
