Answer 2

Answer:

A number just before a given number is always one smaller than the given number as the number is the predecessor of the given number.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Predecessor: Predecessor is a number that precedes another number or we can say its a number that comes before the given number. The predecessor of a given number is 1 less than that given number.
• Example, The Predecessor of 24 = 24 - 1 = 23.

• Successor: Successor is a number that succeeds or comes after the given number. The successor of a given number is 1 more than that number.
• For example, The successor of 24 = 22 + 1 = 25. The successor of 101 = 101 + 1 = 102.

• The predecessor of a given number can be generated by subtracting 1 from the given number. The only whole number is 0 that does not have any predecessor. 

• Successor and Predecessor are not applied to the fractional numbers, decimal numbers or any negative numbers. Every whole number has its successor as well as predecessor except zero.
