Divide a number line into eight segments and label each one in eighths. 5/8 will be to the right of 3/8.
You know by which one is further but I think what you mean to ask is how do you know how much it's greater and if that's what you ment the the difference between the two arrows is the answer
6/10 is bigger
You write the number 3 over the number 10, and a horizontal line in between.

how do you show 2/5's on a number line
We assume you are graphing on a number line, not an x-y plane. Draw an "open" circle (not filled in) at -4, and a line from it across to the right end of the number line. Put an arrow on the end of the line to show that the graph continues to the right.
The positive number is always greater. However, the modulus of a negative number may be greater. Here is the number line. -infinity,.... -5,-4,-3,-2,-1, 0,+1,+2,+3,+4,+5 .... + infinity. So reading the number line, +2 > -4 . However, the modulus of '-4' is greater than the modulus of +2. . It is written as |-4| > |+2|, that is the number four is greater than the number two. Note the pair of vertical lines. NB I have put in the positive (+) sign to compare against the negative (-), however, a number that does not show a sign is read as positive(+).
you put a dash where the correct number is.

Line graphs show a change over time and if you're doing an experiment over a certain number of days or any length of time, line graphs can be used to track your progress and the change of the experiment.
1/4 is equivalent to 0.25 on the number line
