Question 55

Step 1: Both numbers are negative: (-101) and (-102).

Step 2: For negative numbers, the number with the smaller absolute value is greater.

Step 3: Find absolute values.

(|-101| = 101)

(|-102| = 102)

Step 4: Compare the absolute values.

(101 < 102)

Step 5: Therefore, (-101) is to the right of (-102) on the number line.

(-101 > -102)
