−10 ____ −11
−10 > −11
Step 1: Think of the number line.
… −12, −11, −10, −9 …
Step 2: Use the rule:
On a number line, a number to the right is greater.
Step 3: Check positions.
\(-11\) is to the left of \(-10\).
\(-10\) is to the right of \(-11\).
Step 4: Compare.
Since right means greater, \(-10\) is greater than \(-11\).
Therefore: \(-10\; >\; -11\).
