Problem: what number is smaller -7 or -35
what number is smaller -7 or -35
Imagine a number line, starting at zero and running
to the left (in the negative direction). On this line,
zero is the largest number. The further you move to the
left, the smaller the numbers are. You go from 0 to -1,
-2, -3 and so on.
-35 is smaller than -7
