Question

Which of these negative numbers is the largest?

Answer 1

⭐When we refer to negative numbers, the largest are the ones that are "less negative" or in others words, closest to the number 0.

For example, if we have the numbers: -50, -10, -5

The largest is -5, to be closest to the 0:

  |____|____|____|
-50    -10    -5       0

Always consider that for negative numbers, as the negative value increases, the number becomes smaller.
