Positive numbers are any numbers greater than zero.

For example: 1, 2.9, 3.14159, 40000, and 0.0005.

Negative numbers are any number less than zero.

For Example: -1, -2.9, -3.14159, -40000, and -0.0005.

For each positive number, there is a negative number that is its opposite. We write the opposite of a positive number with a negative or minus sign in front of the number, and call these numbers negative numbers.

We do not consider zero to be a positive or negative number.

The sum of any number and its (negative) opposite is 0.

The sign of a number refers to whether the number is positive or negative.

For example: The sign of -3.2 is negative, and the sign of 442 is positive.

We may also write positive and negative numbers as fractions or mixed numbers.
