How to reason using benchmarks to compare two fractions on the number line?

Comparing fractions using benchmarks involves comparing fractions to reference points or benchmarks such as 0, 1/2, and 1.

Steps to Compare Fractions Using Benchmarks:

1. Choose benchmarks that are easy to work with, such as 0, 1/2, and 1. These benchmarks help provide reference points for comparison.
2. Compare each fraction to the benchmarks and determine whether it is less than, equal to, or greater than the benchmark.
3. Use visual models such as number lines or fraction bars to represent fractions and their relationships to benchmarks. This helps in understanding visually.
