It increases.
If that is 14, then it will be greater than 6 as you are multiplying by a number greater than 1. If that is 1/4, then it will be less than 6 as you are multiplying by a (positive) fraction less than 1.
Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers. Decimals can be either positive or negative.
multiply both sides by "negative 1" (or any negative number excluding 0). This would make the side on -1 become a positive number. Any positive number would be greater than 0.
why do objects get bigger when you multiply/scale by a number greater than 1
A positive number is a number greater than zero. Therefore: 5 x 2 = 10 is one example.
It depends. If you start with a positive number, then multiply by a positive greater than one and the answer is greater; multiply by 1 and the answer is the same; multiply by a number between 0 and 1 and the answer is smaller; multiply by 0 and the answer is 0; multiply by a number less than 0 and the answer is negative.
You get a positive number which is larger than the original.

If you multiply your number by any number greater than 1, the result will be greater than the starting number - assuming your number is positive. If your number is negative, you need to multiply it by any number less than 1, to get a result that is greater than the original number. To get a number that is slightly greater, multiply by a number that is slightly greater than 1 (ot slightly lee than= -1).
Add any positive number to that number, and you'll get one that is greater. Or, since it's a positive number, multiply it by any number larger than one.

You get another number whose magnitude will be greater than the original number. Whether it is bigger or smaller will depend on whether the whole number was positive or negative.
Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers. Decimals can be either positive or negative.
No. Positive means GREATER than zero.No. Positive means GREATER than zero.No. Positive means GREATER than zero.No. Positive means GREATER than zero.
