The required number line is

(a)

(b)

Step by step solution

Given numbers

Given numbers are $0.9, - 0.75$

Procedure

(a) The decimal number $0.9$ is equivalent to $\frac{9}{10}$ a proper fraction, so $0.9$ is located between 0 and 1. On a number line, we divide the interval between 0 and 1 into 10 equal parts. Now we label the parts $0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0$ and mark $0.9$ on the number line.

(b) The decimal number $- 0.75$ is equivalent to $- \frac{75}{100} = - \frac{1}{4}$ , a proper fraction, so is located between -1 and 0. On a number line, we divide the interval between -1 and 0 into 4 equal parts. Now we label the parts $- 1, - 0.75, - 0.5, - 0.25$ and mark $- 0.75$ on the number line.
