Can any negative integer be greater than a positive integer?
Some sources say that the answer is no because a negative integer is less than zero and a positive integer is greater that zero. This answer is partially incorrect because if a negative integer is in an absolute value problem, it can potentially be greater that a positive integer. Example: |-11| > 7 because |-11|=11 because it is in an absolute value problem. Simplified, the problem is 11 > 7 So yes, in some cases a negative integer is greater that a positive integer.
Is 0.07 greater or less than negative 7?
0.07 is greater than -7 because anything below 0 is negative while 0.07 is actually greater than 0
Is negative 3 greater or less than 7?
-3 is less than 7
What is larger negative 7 or negative 2 Explain?
-2 is greater than -7 because it is the closest to zero and -7 is colder than -2
Is negative 2 greater than negative 7?
yes, because it is closer to zero on the negative side
