A. 1.4
B. 1.5
C. 1.6
D. 1.7
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Consider the given number line.

Observe that:

The distance between 1 and 2 is divided into 10 equal parts.

So, each part represents a length of one-tenth or 0.1.

Now, count the number of parts from 1 to x.

There are 7 parts.

This means that the point x is 7 parts to the right of 1 or 7 tenths after 1.

Now, 1 and 7 tenths equals 1.7.

So, the decimal represented by the point x is 1.7.
