Now we’re going to compare -5 (negative five) and 3 (positive three).

​

Like it states above, 3 is obviously bigger because it is a positive number. However, we can also place it on a number line to show that is bigger as well.

-5 is less than 3

Now, let’s compare -3 (negative three) and -2 (negative two).

I placed -3 and -2 on the number line and since -2 is further to the right it is larger than -3.

-3 is less than -2.

Finally, let’s look at -4 and 0.

​

All negatives are less than 0. Zero is the number in between all positive and negative numbers. Based on the number line shown and knowledge about placement of negative numbers, -4 is less than 0.

​

Side Note: In the picture, I erased A, B, C, and D in order to not distract you with all of the other letters there. You do not need to erase the other letters.
