On a number line, what is the point labeled 0 called?
AThe coordinate
BThe denominator
CThe origin
DThe remainder
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. The origin
1. A number line has equally spaced points labeled with numbers.
2. The starting point of the number line is labeled 0.
3. The point labeled 0 is called the origin.
4. The coordinate is the number paired with a point, the denominator belongs to fractions, and the remainder belongs to division, so none of those name the point 0.
