The Number Line with Signed Numbers: Identify the greater value

Fill in the corresponding sign

$E?-1$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$E=-1$

We can see that it's the same number, therefore:

$-1=-1$

$=$

Fill in the corresponding sign

$E?H$

Let's locate the number that represents the letter on the number line:

$E=-1$

$H=2$

We should note that 2 is a positive number, and minus 1 is a negative number, therefore:

-1 < 2

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$D?H$

We will locate the letters on the number line and see which numbers represent them:

$D=-2$

$H=2$

Since the number 2 is positive, and the number minus 2 is negative:

-2<2

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$A?K$

We will locate the letters on the number line and see which numbers represent them:

$A=-5$

$K=5$

Since the number 5 is positive, and the number minus 5 is negative:

-5<5

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$C?1$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$C=-3$

After locating the numbers, we can determine:

-3<1

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$E?H$

We will locate the letters on the number line and see which numbers represent them:

$E=-1$

$H=2$

Since the number 2 is positive, and the number minus 1 is negative:

-1<2

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$J?4$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$J=4$

We should note that it's the same number, therefore:

$4=4$

$=$

Fill in the corresponding sign

$0?D$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$D=-2$

Since the number negative 2 is negative, it must be less than zero, therefore:

0 > -2

>

Fill in the corresponding sign

$17?+17$

Since both numbers are positive and identical, they are equal to each other:

$17=+17$

$=$

Fill in the corresponding sign

$25?-5$

Since the number minus 5 is a negative number and the number 25 is positive, 25 is necessarily greater:

25 > -5

>

Fill in the corresponding sign

$+3?0$

Since the number 3 comes after the number 0, it is necessarily greater:

3 > 0

>

Fill in the corresponding sign

$I?C$

Let's plot the letters on the number line and see which numbers represent them:

$I=3$

$C=-3$

Since the number 3 is positive, and the number minus 3 is negative:

3 > -3

>

Fill in the corresponding sign

$F?-5$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$F=0$

Since the number negative 5 is negative, it is necessarily less than zero, and therefore:

0 > -5

>

Fill in the corresponding sign

$B?G$

Let's locate the letters on the number line and see which numbers represent them:

$B=-4$

$G=1$

Since the number 1 is positive, and the number minus 4 is negative:

-4<1

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$C?1$

Let's locate the letter on the number line and see which number represents it:

$C=-3$

Since the number 1 is positive, and the number minus 3 is negative:

-3 < 1

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$0?-3.9$

Since the number -3.9 is further from zero, it must be smaller, therefore:

0 > -3.9

> $$$$$$

Fill in the corresponding sign

$-\frac{1}{2}?-\frac{1}{4}$

Let's place the numbers on the number line.

We will use whole numbers as reference points.

That is, both fractions are located between the numbers 0 and 1:

Since negative one-quarter is closer to zero, it is greater, therefore:

-\frac{1}{2} < -\frac{1}{4}

<

Fill in the corresponding sign

$-4?-3.5$

Let's place the two numbers on the number line and observe which one is closer to zero:

Since the number -3.5 is closer to zero, it is greater:

-4 < -3.5

<

Which is larger?

Let's look at the number line and locate each letter:

$A+L=-4+7=3$

$G-E=2-0=2$

$H+C=3+(-2)$

$B-D=-3-(-1)$

Let's solve the remaining exercises and remember the rules:

$+(-x)=-x$

$-(-x)=+x$

Therefore:

$H+C=3+(-2)=3-2=1$

$B-D=-3-(-1)=-3+1=-2$

Thus, A+L is the largest.

$A+L$

Which is larger?

Let's look at the number line and locate each letter:

$B+F=-2+2=0$

$A-C=-3-(-1)$

$L=8$

$J-G=6-3=3$

Let's solve the remaining exercises and remember the rule:

$-(-x)=+x$

Therefore:

$A-C=-3-(-1)=-3+1=-2$

Therefore, L is the largest.

$L$
