Comparing integersWhen comparing integers, you can use a number line .  Any number to the right of 0 gets bigger and bigger as you move to the right. So, if the numbers are positive, the smaller number is the one closer to 0  Any number to the left of 0 gets smaller and smaller as you move to the left. So, if the numbers are negative, the bigger number is the one closer to zero Thing to remember: Numbers on the left are always smaller than numbers on the right. Example #1 Compare 3 and -2  -2 is on the left of 3, so -2 is smaller than 3 Example #2 Compare -4 and -1 At first, you may have a tendency to say that -4 is bigger than -1 because 4 is bigger than 1. However, this is not the case. -1 is bigger than -4 because it is closer to 0. Also, -1 is on the right of -4  Compare -7 and -5 -5 is bigger than -7
