The difference of two numbers is less than the greater number?

Not always: Consider 3 and 2: the difference is 3 - 2 = 1 < the larger Now consider 3 and 0: the difference is 3 - 0 = 3 = the larger Now consider 3 and -1: the difference is 3 - (-1) = 4 > the larger.


What two consecutive number pairs have a larger total than product?

1 and 2 1 + 2 = 3 1 x 2 = 2


When you subtract a number from 2 the answer is always less than 2 Why is this statement not correct?

Because not always is so. When you subtract a negative number from 2, then the result is a number larger than 2. 2 - 1 = 1; 1< 2 2 - 4 = -2; -2 < 2 but 2 - (-1) = 2 + 1 = 3; 3 > 2


How do you graph 3 5th on the number line?

3/5 = 6/10, 1/10 larger than 1/2


How can you find the scale factor from a larger figure to the smaller figure using the scale factor from the smaller to larger figure?

Take the 'reciprocal' of the given scale factor to go the other way. The 'reciprocal' of a number is 1/(the number). 3 ==> 1/3 5 ==> 1/5 1/7 ==> 7 2/3 ==> 3/2 etc.

What are the factors of 3 between 100 to 120?

When you add all the digits of a number and it is a factor of 3, that means the larger number is a factor of 3. For example: 101 is not because 1+0+1=2, However, 102 is because 1+0+2=3 and 3*1-3.

What is the difference between the numbers 2 and 3?

1. The difference of two numbers are the numbers between them. The difference is found by subtracting the smaller number from the larger. In this case, 2 is subtracted from 3 (3-2) with a difference of 1. 3-2=1


Is the difference of two positive numbers positive or negative?

If you are asking how many numbers difference is there between two numbers, then it will be positive. If you are referring to subtraction, if the number you are subtracting from is the larger number, it will be positive. If it is smaller it will be negative. 3 - 2 = 1 (3, the number being subtracted from, is larger, so the answer is positive) 2 - 3 = -1 (2, the number being subtracted from, is smaller, so the answer is negative)


The sum of two numbers is 3 times their difference If the larger number is 6 more than the smaller number what is the larger number?

ya i will solve this question by taking assumptions if we observe the question easily identified the larger number is greater than smaller number by 6 and one thing is the sum of two numbers is 3 times their difference from this information we clearly says sum is divided by 3 so if we take smaller number 1 larger number 7(add 6) (1+6)=3(5) and now smaller number 2 larger number 8 (2+8)=3(6) : : : take smaller number 6 larger number 12 this is the correct answer 6+12=3(6)
