Integer Line of a negative fraction

Question

Hello, if I have a fraction of -16/6 and need to know the location of the value of the fraction on a integer line. Would the answer be -2.6? and the location would be somewhere between -3 and -2? Thank you.

Answer 1

-16/6 = -8/3 = - 2.666... = - 2 2/3

that is between -3 and -2, but closer to -3 than to -2

. If you round off to one decimal place, to the nearest tenth you get - 2.7
