Draw a number line on a piece of paper. Write a 0 in the middle. Then on the left side on the number line write the numbers -1 to -5. On the right side of the number line draw the numbers 1 - 5.
-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5
(Finding the answer)
On the number line start at -5 and then move 4 spaces to your right and you will land on the number -1.
If you have a number line, you’ll see that -5 is 5 spaces behind zero. By adding 4, you move 4 spaces forward to -1. Therefore, -1 would be your answer.
