Follow the steps to make your own number line. Then, use the number line to answer the questions.
Use a straightedge or a ruler to draw a horizontal line. Mark the middle point of the line and label it 0.
To the right of 0, draw tick marks that are 1 centimeter apart. Label the tick marks 1, 2, 3. . . 10. This represents the positive side of your number line.
Fold your paper so that a vertical crease goes through 0 and the two sides of the number line match up perfectly.
