Question

find the location of k, the midpoint of $overline{jm}$. location of k :

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mid - point formula

The mid - point of two numbers \(a\) and \(b\) on a number line is given by \(\frac{a + b}{2}\). Here \(a = 5.3\) and \(b=8.6\).

Step2: Calculate the mid - point

\[K=\frac{5.3 + 8.6}{2}=\frac{13.9}{2}=6.95\]

Answer:

6.95
