Why it is necessary to reverse the inequality symbol when multiplying both sides of an inequality by a negative number Provide an example to support your explanation?
"<" means "farther to the left on the number line " and ">" means "farther to the right on the number line". Multiplying by a negative number switches the sign, which is a reflection that turns left into right. Double switch example: 1<2 multiply this by (-2): -2>-4 multiply this by (-1): 2<4
Which is greater -10 or 10?
If, by greater, you mean which is farther away from zero on the "number line" then the answer is neither! they are equally distant from zero. The "absolute value" of a number is the distance from zero on the number line. -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 That's what the number line middle looks like for whole numbers. -firstmate-

Why is 6 farther away from -2 than -6?
Visualize a number line. -6 is four to the left of -2. 6 is eight to the right.
Which is bigger negative one half or negative one?
Negative 1/2 is bigger than negative 1. If you look at the number line the farther right you go the bigger the numbers get. example: 1,2,3,4.. so it is the same for negative numbers example: -4,-3,-2,-1,-1/2

What does the fraction number line look like?
The fraction number line (its more sophisticated name is "Rational Number Line") looks like an ordinary straight line, but each submicroscopic point on the line represents a number which can be represented as a fraction of two integers. The number "zero" stands at the center of the line, and there are an infinite number of points in the line. No matter how close together two fractions are, there are an infinite number of fractions between them. A number line is a strictly theoretical concept. It really isn't possible to draw more than an extremely limited example of a number line, since there is no limit to the number of points on a number line. Here's a very primitive fraction number line, showing only halves: -7/2 ... -3 ... -5/2 ... -2 ... -3/2 ... -1 ... -1/2 ... 0 ... 1/2 ... 1 ... 3/2 ... 2 ... 5/2 ... 3 ... 7/2 And an only slightly more intricate line showing only sevenths: -6/7 ... -5/7 ... -4/7 ... -3/7 ... -2/7 ... -1/7 ... 0 ... 1/7 ... 2/7 ... 3/7 ... 4/7 ... 5/7 ... 6/7
