Answer 2

A number 1 less than a given number is called its predecessor.

• In mathematics, a number that comes immediately before a particular number is known as the predecessor of that number.
• Let 'n' be a given number, then, 'n - 1' will be its predecessor.
• For example, consider the number 5, then the number 4 is its predecessor. Consider another number 100, its predecessor is 99.
• On the other hand, a number 1 more than a given number is called its successor. E.g., 6 is the successor of 5.
• Thus, a number 1 less than a given number is called its predecessor.
