Ordering Integers Using a Number Line

The video tutorial explains how to compare and order integers using inequality symbols and a number line. It begins with an introduction to inequality symbols, followed by examples comparing integers like -3 and 0, and -8 and 2. The tutorial uses a number line to visually demonstrate the comparisons and concludes with ordering the integers from least to greatest.

What does the open side of an inequality symbol face?

• The smaller number

• The larger number

• The number zero

• The number one

On a number line, where are positive numbers located in relation to zero?

• To the left of zero

• To the right of zero

• Above zero

• Below zero

Which number is larger: negative 3 or 0?

• They are equal

• Negative 3

• Cannot be determined

• 0

Where is negative 8 located on a number line?

• 8 places to the right of 0

• 8 places to the left of 0

• At 0

• 4 places to the left of 0

Order the following numbers from least to greatest: negative 8, negative 3, 0, 2.

• Negative 3, negative 8, 0, 2

• 0, negative 3, 2, negative 8

• 2, 0, negative 3, negative 8

• Negative 8, negative 3, 0, 2
