0 is in the exact middle of the number line. All positive numbers are to the right of 0 (greater than 0) and all negative numbers are to the left of 0 (less than 0). So no, -8 is not greater than 0.
Yes, -1.375 is greater then 1.380. When considering negative numbers, the number that is closer to 0 is greater.
12.5 > -13 or -13 < 12.5 I casually think of temperatures. '-13 oC is colder than 12.5 oC . So 13 < 12.5 Or think of the number line. -14,-13,5, -13, -12.5 , -12 .... 0 .... 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14. The negative (left) side is always less than the positive (right) side. The modulus of the number |-13| > |12.5| it Follows that |13|>|12.5| ,, but the negative sign makes it 'less than'.
A negative number is less than a positive number. Think about it this way: a negative number is less than 0. A positive number is greater than 0. Therefore, a negative number must be less than a positive number.
