Where do you use negative numbers?
you use negative numbers when measuring the temperature when playing golf or jeopardy! hope this helps! The only place negative numbers work is on paper. It is good when you are having trouble to answer a question.When you need help i would use a number line because it saves getting the answer wrong or even use your fingers because getting the answer wrong is more embarrasing than using your hands/fingers or using a number line...lol
