Question

Which number lies next to 'the largest number you can think of' on the number line?

• A. $99999$
• B. $999999$
• C. $9999999$
• D. 'the largest number you can think of' $+1$

Answer 1

The correct option is D 'the largest number you can think of' $+1$

On the number line, to get a number lying next to (or before) any given number, we simply add (or subtract) $1$ to that number.
Also, the number is one greater than the given number, if the number adjacent to the reference point lies to its right-side, otherwise it is smaller than the given number.
So, the number which would lie next to 'the largest number you can think of' towards its right-side would be 'the largest number you can think of' $+1$.
