The predecessor of the integer –1 is
(A) 0 (B) 2 (C) –2 (D) 1
Solution:-
(C) –2
The number which comes immediately before a particular number is called its predecessor.
To find the predecessor of a number, subtract one from the given number.
So, predecessor of -1 = -1 -1 = -2
Number of integers lying between –1 and 1 is
(A) 1 (B) 2 (C) 3 (D) 0
Solution:-
(A) 1
Integer that comes between -1 and 1 is 0.
Number of whole numbers lying between –5 and 5 is
(A) 10 (B) 3 (C) 4 (D) 5
