Is negative 30 greater than negative 5?
No. It is 5 times smaller.
Is minus 3 smaller than plus 5?
Yes. -3 is smaller than +5. Any negative number is smaller than any positive number.
Is -8 larger than -5?
-3
Negative plus a positive is?
It depends. If the positive is bigger, than it will be positive (-5+10=5 is the same as 10-5=5). If it is smaller than the negative, it will be negative (-10+5=-5 is the same as 5-10)
What is negative 9 minus 5?
-5 - 9 = -14
Is -310 larger or smaller than -3100?
2790
Which has the greater number -8 or 5?
any positive number is larger than a negative. a bigger negative number like -1000 is smaller than -500, which is smaller than 0, think about it like a number line.
Is negative 7 greater than negative 5?
No negative 5 is greater than negative 7. Remember, when you go right on a number line the amount of what you have gets bigger. If you go left on the number line the amount you have gets smaller. In terms, think of this. If you were sitting at $-5, how would you get to negative $-7? You'd go left(spend)? So this means that the amount is getting smaller.
Is 5 over 14 smaller than 3 over 7?
Yes.
What happens when you times a number less than 1?
Let us see what happens if you times by, say, 2 and 5: If the "number less than 1" is in fact less than -1 (eg -4), then the answer will be negative and the absolute value of your answer will be bigger than the number you are timesing by: 2*(-4) = -8 and 5*(-4) = -20 [8 is bigger than 2, 20 is bigger than 5] If the number is -1, then timesing it simply makes it negative. 2*(-1) = -2 and 5*(-1) = -5 If the number is between -1 and 0 (eg -0.6), you will get a negative number that is smaller than whatever you are timesing by: 2*(-0.6) = -1.2 and 5*(-0.6) = -3.0 [1.2 is smaller than 2, 3 is smaller than 5] If the number is 0, the answer is 0. If the number is between 0 and 1 (eg 0.6), you will get a number that is smaller than whatever you are timesing by: 2*(0.6) = 1.2 and 5*(0.6) = 3.0 [1.2 is smaller than 2, 3 is smaller than 5] And that covers all possible numbers smaller than 1.
Is negative 2.5 hiher than negative 5 or neative 5 higher tha negative 2.5?
Depends what you mean by higher. Minus 2.5 is greater than minus 5 because you have to add 2.5 to -5 to get there. On the other hand, a bank account summary showing a negative amount is showing a higher debt than a smaller negative amount. The word higher is not used in Math. Use "greater than" or "less than". And you have to add positive numbers to get to a number "greater than".
What is 14 plus negative 5?
14 + (-5) is just like 14-5 Therefore the answer is 9. :)
