• Where is the middle of the number line?
• Is it here?• Part is on the right. It goes from here to ∞.
• Part is on the left. It goes from here to -∞.

• Could the middle be here?
• Part is on the right. It goes from here to ∞.
• Part is on the left. It goes from here to -∞.

• Could the middle be here?
So any point divides the number line in two parts.
