Detailed Solution

The given rational number is

\frac{- 2}{3} .

We know that every positive number occupies space right to the origin while the negative numbers are present on the left side of the origin.
Let us learn to represent a rational number on a number line with few steps.
The number

\frac{- 2}{3}

is a negative rational number and it is known that

\frac{- 2}{3}

is greater than

- 1

and less than

0

Therefore,

\frac{- 2}{3}

lies between

0

and

- 1

and on the left side of '0' on the number line.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
