Question 24.

State True/False

The sum of any two negative integers is always smaller than both the integers.

Answer 1

True

The sum of any two negative integers is always smaller than both the integers.

Let us take two negative integers -11 and -13.

Sum of -11 and -13 = -11 + (-13) = -11-13 = -24

Now, -24 < -11 and -24 < - 13.

Hence the given statement is true.
