A. 3.3
B. 3.5
C. 4.5
D. 4.6
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Consider the given number line.

The length between 3 and 4; 4 and 5 is 1 each.

Observe that:

The distance between 4 and 5 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 4 to j.

There are 5 parts.

This means that the point j is 5 parts to the right of 4 or 5 tenths after 4.

Now, 4 and 5 tenths equals 4.5.

So, the decimal represented by the point j is 4.5.
