Understanding the Third Point on the Number Line

In the context of the number line, "third" refers to the point or position that is three units away from a given reference point.

For example, if we start at 0 and move 3 units to the right, we reach the third point on the number line, which is 3. Similarly, if we start at 0 and move 3 units to the left, we reach the third point on the number line, which is -3.

So, the third can be thought of as a position or point that is three units away from a reference point, whether it be to the right or left of that point.
