-0.999999 repeating

Actually -0.999999 repeating is not the biggest number. How can anyone know that? Well, as every one knows the more further you go down the number line the more smaller the numbers get. So what you are looking for is the number most nearest to zero. However, we have a minor problem. Your number could range within:

0.01 to 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

I do not think that your school will let you put that many zeroes in front of the 1.

But the more zeroes you put in front of the 1, the more the negative number gets bigger.

Any negative number that goes to inifinity. ' -inf'.

Such as number as -1,000,000 can be decreased by ' '-1,000,001' hence one can go on forever.

How is negative 1 the largest negative number?

In a number line numbers grow up from left to right. So the negative numbers go toward zero, which is not a signed number, and separate negative from positive numbers(..., -50, ..., -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., 50,...).So that -1 is the largest negative integer.

Why does adding a positive and negative integer always result in a negative integer?

It won't always result in a negative integer. Multiplyinga positive number and a negative number always results in a negative number. For example 3 x -2 = -6. Adding a positive number and a negative number can result in a negative number but it does not have to.When adding a positive number with a negative number, we really subtract from the largest number in the absolute value the smallest number in the absolute value, and we keep the sign of the number with the larger absolute value. So the sign of the number with the larger absolute value will determine the sign of the answer.Some examples:10 + (-7) = 3Here, 10 is the largest number in the absolute value, because |10| = 10, and |-7| = 7. So, 10-7=3. 3 will be positive since 10 was positive7 + (-10) = -3Here, -10 is the largest number in absolute value, because |-10| = 10, and |7| = 7. So, 10 - 7 = 3. 3 will be a negative number since -10 was negative number. Thus, the answer will be -3.-10 + 7 = -3-7 + 10 = 3It all depends on whether the number with the larger absolute value is negative or positive. If it is positive then the answer will be positive. If it is negative then the answer will be negative. If the two numbers have an equal absolute value, then the result is zero, which is neither positive nor negative.
