It is given that 8.1 is represented on the number line.

In order to represent 8.1 on the number line, we first draw a line segment AB of length 8.1 units and extend it to C such that BC = 1. 

Let O be the midpoint of AC and with O as center and OA as radius, draw a semicircle that cuts AB at C. 

AC=AB+BC

Moreover, AB = 8.1 units and BC = 1 unit

Therefore, AC = 9.1 units

Also, AC = 2 OA 

Therefore, OA= OC = AC2 =  9.12 = 4.55 units.
