Just subtract the lowest number from the greatest number. For example, the distance between 3 and 8, is 8 - 3 = 5 units, the distance between -2 and 3, is 3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5 units, the distance between -4 and -2, is -2 - (-4) = -2 + 4 = 2 units.
The distance formula is the final position minus the initial. So: 6 - (-3) = 9
Yes, the distance between -5 and 3 on a number line is 8. (The distance from -5 to zero is 5, which is the absolute value).
The distance between any two different points is always a positive quantity.
it could be called the distance like you just said. it could be called that numbers quantity. like if that number was 3 then the distnace would be called just 3.
