use MATHS plz
There are different schools of thought on this, but I maintain that whole numbers start with zero.
The number that is one less than 7000, that is, 7000 - 1.
The predecessor of 1 is 0. If you define "natural numbers" as starting at 1, then 1 has no predecessor. (Natural numbers can be defined either to include, or to exclude, zero.)
A smaller 3 digit number or a 2 digit number (99).
There is no whole number without a predecessor. According to Peano's axioms, the number natural 0 has no predecessor.
Yes it does.
a thing that has been followed or replaced by another: 2 is the predecessor of 3
-1Another opinionIf this question in asking about so-called "absolute numbers" - which are numbers without any signs (+ or -) - then there is no whole number predecessor to zero.
So basically if your questions says 'What natural number has no predecessor ' it will be 1 because behind one is 0 which is a whole number but not a natural number .So the answer will be 1.

Natural numbers, which were around before the concept of negative numbers

No. 1 does not have a predecessor: 0 is not a natural number.
As discussed in the introduction, a predecessor is a value that comes right before/immediate before/just before a particular value. Suppose a value is x (where x belongs to any whole number), then the predecessor of x will be x-1. Thus, to find the predecessor of any value, we have to subtract the given value from 1.
Predecessor of a number is obtained by subtracting 1 from it. The smallest 4 digit number is 1000 and its predecessor is 1000 - 1 = 999.
