To do:

We have to find between which two whole numbers on the number line the given numbers lie.

Solution:

(a) $0<0.8<1$

This implies,

$0.8$ lies between 0 and 1.

0.8 is nearer to 1.

(b) $5<5.1<6$

This implies,

$5.1$ lies between the whole numbers 5 and 6.

5.1 is nearer to 5.

(c) $2<2.6<3$

This implies,

$2.6$ lies between the whole numbers 2 and 3.

2.6 is nearer to 3.

(d) $6<6.4<7$

This implies,

$6.4$ lies between the whole numbers 6 and 7.

6.4 is nearer to 6.

(e) $9<9.1<10$

This implies,

$9.1$ lies between the whole numbers 9 and 10.

9.1 is nearer to 9.

(f) $4<4.9<5$

This implies,

$4.9$ lies between the whole numbers 4 and 5.

4.9 is nearer to 5.
