The least integer lying between \(−10\) and \(−15\) is
−10
−11
−15
−14
Step 1: “Between −15 and −10” means numbers strictly inside the interval.
(-15 < n < -10)
Step 2: List the integers in this range.
(-14,; -13,; -12,; -11)
Step 3: “Least” means the smallest number on the number line.
For negative numbers, a smaller number is more negative (farther left).
Step 4: Compare the listed integers.
(-14 < -13)
(-13 < -12)
(-12 < -11)
Conclusion: The least integer is (-14).
