Question

Compare these integers. Use <, >, or =.

-35 _ -51

Answer 1

i sorta think it would be <

Answer 2

Picture a number line....greater goes to the right and smaller goes to the left.
Negatives are the opposite of positives. What I mean by that is -2 is greater then -3, whereas, 2 is less then 3.
So is -35 to the left of -51 or to the right of -51 ?

Answer 3

Answer 4

-35 is to the right of -51, and going to the right means greater, so -35 > -51
