Question

Which of the following options represents the correct relation between integers?

• A. $-9>-10$
• B. $9>10$
• C. $-10=-9$
• D. $-10>-9$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $-9>-10$

We know that in a number line, a number that is more towards the right side is greater.

9 > 10
$\because$ 10 is on the right of 9.
So, 9 is not greater than 10.

$-10=-9$ is a false statement.

Now for, $-10>-9\&-9>-10$


–9 is on the right of –10.
$\therefore$ –9 is greater than –10.
