On a number line, how far apart are -2 and 7?
On a number line, how far apart are -2 and 7?
On a number line, negative numbers lie to the left of zero and positive numbers lie to the right. To count the distance, count the slots between the two numbers:
There are TWO units between -2 and 0, and there are SEVEN units between 0 and 7. Together, there are NINE units between them.
