A. 1.2
B. 1.3
C. 1.4
D. 1.5
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 s.

There are 4 parts.

This means that the point s is 4 parts to the right of 1 or 4 tenths after 1.

Now, 1 and 4 tenths equals 1.4.

So, the decimal represented by the point s is 1.4.
