Why isn't a mixed number always greater than a whole number?
Because say if you drew a number line and you couldonly write numbers from 0 to1.Those two are whole numbersthis numbers right here whichare 1 and 1/3 is a mixed numberA mixed number has a whole number and a fraction. If the whole number part of a mixed number is less than a whole number, then the mixed number will be less than the whole number. For example,7 1/3 < 823 3/4 < 1004 1/2 > 4Any number between ' 1 ' and ' 2 ' is a mixed number, butit's less than any whole number that's greater than 1.
What is a whole number and their opposite?
Well to correct your grammar first of all so I can read the question more understandably, what is a whole number and its opposite. A whole number is a number greater than 0. The opposite of a whole number is a negative number. A negative number is a number below 0, like you see on thermometers when its really cold sometimes. Here is a very important thing that you need to know. If you don't know this you will get it wrong on a test. 0 is not a negative number or whole number. It is just known as a place holder on the number line.
What is the greaest or least from the number line negative or greater?
what is the greatest or least from the number line negative or greater
When you subtract a negative number from another negative number do you get a positive or a negative number?
always a negative number. just think about going backwards on a number line.
Why is the number line of a number is never negative?
A number line can have both positive and negative numbers. You can put the number line in any position, but often it is represented so that numbers to the right of zero are positive, and numbers to the left of zero, negative.
Can an integer be negative?
Integers are whole numbers that go from negative infinity to positive infinity. As such, they do cover the negative range of the number line.

Are negative numbers integers?
Integers can be negative or positive numbers providing that they are whole numbers without decimals or fractions.
If you multiply a non zero whole number by a decimal less than one would the product be less than or greater than the whole number?
It depends on the signs of the two numbers.The answer is tricky when at least one number is negative because you have to remember that "less than" means "farther to the left on the number line" and NOT "greater in magnitude". E.g. -20 is less than -4 because -20 is farther to the left even though its magnitude (absolute value) is greater.There are four possible cases:Whole number and decimal are both positive: The product is less than the whole number. The decimal reduces the magnitude of the product, so the product is to the left of the whole number on the number line. E.g. 0.5 * 10 = 5, which is less than 10.Whole number positive, decimal negative. The product less than the whole number. A negative times a positive is ALWAYS negative, so regardless of its magnitude the product is to the left of the positive whole number on the number line. E.g. 15 * (-0.2) = -3 and -3 < 15Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. The product is negative but like in Case 1, the magnitude of the product is smaller, so the product is to the right of the whole number on the number line. E.g. (-8) * 0.3 = -2.4 and -8 < -2.4Whole number negative, decimal negative. The product is greater than the whole number. A negative times a negative is positive, and ANY positive number is always greater than any negative number regardless of magnitude. E.g. (-0.25) * (-12) = +3 and -12 < +3
To add a negative number in which direction do you count on the number line?
Adding a negative number is the equivalent to moving to the left on a negative-positive number line.

Is zero an actual number?
No, but is included in integers. An integer is any positive or negative whole number, including zero up or down the number line. xD
Which is greater negative 12 or negative 18?
-12 is larger than -18. Think of the negative numbers as moving right and left along a number line containing whole numbers.
When you have a negative slope is the whole thing negative?
What is the "whole thing?" Also, if a line has a negative slope, it doesn't mean that all points on the line have negative coordinates. It just means that for every increase in x, there is a decrease in y. On a straight line, the gradient is the same all the way along. Which, if this is how you meant it, the "whole thing" is negative. However not all coordinates will be negative.
What is the greaest or least from the number line negative or greater?
what is the greatest or least from the number line negative or greater
How do you put numbers on a number line?
A number line is composed of numbers in sequential order from a number A to a number B. For example, 1 2 3 4 5 would be a number line, if the numbers were arranged on a line with small "ticks" in order to define them. 5 4 3 2 1 would also be a number line, in a negative manner. Anything on the left of a number line is considered negative, anything on the right of a number line and the number 0 is considered positive.
What is a number that is the same distance from zero on the number line s a given number but lies in the opposite directions?
Integers. They are pretty much any whole number. (This includes negative numbers)
