Solution

Predecessor: The predecessor of a natural number is one less than the given number.
So, the predecessor of $999$ is $= 999 - 1 = 998$
Successor: The successor of a natural number is one greater than the given number.
So, the successor of $999$ is $= 999 + 1 = 1000$
Hence, the successor and the predecessor of $999$ are $1000 a n d 998$ respectively.
