Ordering Integers Flashcards

A whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero.

Arranging numbers from smallest to largest.

Arranging numbers from largest to smallest.

Integers less than zero, e.g., -1, -2, -3.

Integers greater than zero, e.g., 1, 2, 3.

Zero is neither positive nor negative and is placed between negative and positive integers.

When comparing two integers, the one further to the right on a number line is greater.

The more negative a number is, the smaller it is (e.g., -5 is smaller than -2).

A visual representation of integers in order, with negative numbers to the left of zero and positive numbers to the right.

When ordering a mix of positive and negative integers, negatives come first, then zero, then positives.
