How to Locate Points on a Number Line, Part I

10 11 12 13 14 15 16

The red dot is a point on the number line.

Notice that the dot is located on a tick mark.

Look at the number below the tick mark — the number is 15.

The dot on the number line represents the number 15.

How to Locate Points on a Number Line, Part II

46 49 52

Only some of the tick marks on the number line above have numbers below them.

Count by ones to see if each tick mark represents one number higher than the number before it.

The red dot is 2 tick marks to the right of the number 46.

46 + 2 = 48, so the dot represents the number 48.

What numbers do the red dots represent?
