Find the distance between the two points on the number line, denoted by each pair of numbers given below:
i) `1,-5`.
ii) `1/2, 2/3`
iii) `-1/2,-1/3`.
iy) `-1/2, 3/4`

Explanation

i) Distance `=1-(-5)=6`

ii) Distance `=2/3-1/2=1/6`

iii) Distance `=1/2-1/3=1/6`

iv) Distance `=3/4+1/2=5/4`

v) Distance `=sqrt3-sqrt2`
