Question 80
If we are at 8 on the number line, then in which direction should we move to reach the integer
(a) -5 ? (b) 11? (c) 0?
We draw a number line and mark some points at equal distance on it.
(a) Clearly, if we move towards -5 from 8, then we need to move toward the left of the number line.
(b) Clearly, if we move towards 11 from 8, then we need to move towards the right of the number line.
(c) Clearly, if we move towards 0 from 8, then we need to move towards the left on the number line.
