No, a number is not always greater than its opposite. For any positive number, it is indeed greater than its opposite (negative counterpart), but for zero, the opposite is also zero, making them equal. For negative numbers, the opposite is a positive number, which is greater than the negative number. Thus, the relationship depends on the sign of the number.
no
It is not clear what you mean by "oppisites" or even opposite. Often a number is the opposite of its opposite. So if the first is greater than the second, the second, which is the opposite of the first, is smaller than the first.

Yes, the opposite of an opposite is always the original number you started with. For example, if you take a number like +5, its opposite is -5, and the opposite of -5 is +5, which is the original number. This principle applies to all real numbers, making it a fundamental concept in mathematics.
No. They are the same.
Sometimes. Also, when depends on what you mean by "opposite": the additive inverse or the multiplicative inverse.
§ In comparing two whole numbers, the one with the most digits is always the greater number. § In decimals the number with the greatest number of digits is not always the greatest.

No.The mixed number 21/2, for example, is greater than the whole number 2, but smaller than the whole number 3.In fact, given any mixed number (which does have a fractional part), it is always possible to find a pair of consecutive whole numbers such that the mixed number is between them.

No. Whatever multiple of the number you think might be the limit, you can always add the whole number again and have a larger multiple.
