To visualize this comparison on a number line, we can represent 0, 1, and 6.2×10^−3 as points on the number line. Since 6.2×10^−3 is a small decimal number, it would be located closer to 0 than to 1 on the number line. Therefore, it would fall between 0 and 1, which is accurately represented by the inequality 0<6.2×10^−3<1.
