Just subtract the lowest number from the greatest number.
For example,
the distance between 3 and 8, is 8 - 3 = 5 units,
the distance between -2 and 3, is 3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5 units,
the distance between -4 and -2, is -2 - (-4) = -2 + 4 = 2 units.

What is the distance between -6 and 9 on the number line?
The distance is 15, because -6 is 6 spaces away from zero and 9 is 9 spaces away from zero. You add the two distances to find the distance between the two numbers.
What expression can you use to find the distance between 28 and -53?
To get the distance between ANY two points on a number line: * Subtract one number from the other * Take the absolute value of the result In symbols: distance(a, b) = | a - b |
How can I Find two consecutive whole numbers that lie between 86?

How do you find the ratio of two areas?
In order to find the ratio of two areas, you times it by the number of a number to get the number of the numbers numbers number, and that number divide by the first number which is 6 and then do the square root of the numbers number to get that number, which you will times by 2.
Can you always find a rational number where the rational number is between two irrational numbers?
See lemma 1.2 from the cut-the-knot link. Yes, you can.
How can we use the number line to find the distance between two rational numbers?
By finding the difference of them

What is the distance between -7 and 23 on a number line?
The easiest way to find the distance between any two numbers on a number line is the bigger number minus the smaller. Here 23 - (-7) = 23+7 = 30. Remember that minus a negative number is the same as plus that number.
What is the distance between -6 and 9 on the number line?
The distance is 15, because -6 is 6 spaces away from zero and 9 is 9 spaces away from zero. You add the two distances to find the distance between the two numbers.

What are the next fore numbers after 0.74?
There are no such numbers. Given any "next" number, it is possible to find one between 0.74 and that number. And then between 0.74 and THAT number and so on.
What is halfway from 21639 and 70458?
The distance to halfway from each of the numbers can be found by taking half the difference of the numbers: (70,458 - 21,639)/2 = 24,409.5, so the halfway number is 48,819 from either numbers. To find the actually halfway number, just add (or subtract) that distance:21,639 + 24,409.5 = 46048.570,458 - 24,409.5 = 46048.546,048.5 is halfway between 21,639 and 70,458.
What between 4 and 5 in number lines?
There are infinitely many numbers between any two different numbers. To find a number exactly in the middle between two numbers, calculate the average. That is, add the two numbers, then divide the result by 2.
