How to solve
To compare, picture a number line: the number farther to the right is greater, so any positive number is greater than a negative one. To add a negative number, move left on the number line; to subtract a number, move left by that amount (subtracting a negative means moving right).
Example
Compare: 5 ___ 16 (use <, >, or =)
Answer: <

💡 On a number line, −6 is to the left of 20, so it is smaller: −6 < 20.
✓ Correct!

Not quite. The answer is
💡 Subtracting 10 is the same as adding its opposite: (−10) − 10 = (−10) + (−10). Both numbers are negative, so add 10 + 10 = 20 and keep the minus sign: (−10) + (−10) = −20.
✓ Correct!

💡 The signs are different, so subtract the sizes: 7 − 1 = 6. 7 is farther from 0, so the answer is positive: 7 + (−1) = 6.
✓ Correct!
Not quite. The answer is
💡 The signs are different, so subtract the sizes: 7 − 1 = 6. 7 is farther from 0, so the answer is positive: 7 + (−1) = 6.
