Question

What does negative 4 over 7 > −2 indicate about the positions of negative 4 over 7 and −2 on the number line?

Answer 1

Answer:

Negative 4 over 7 is located to the right of -2

Step-by-step explanation:

That is, if a < b, where a and b are any real number

⇒ b is located on the right side of a in the number line,

Here, given expression,

negative 4 over 7 > −2

That is, $-\frac{4}{7}>-2$

⇒ Negative 4 over 7 is located to the right of -2

-4/7 > -2

greater then goes to the right and less then goes to the left

-4/7 is located to the right of -2
