Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 is the least number that lies between -5 and-2

Answer 2

Answer:

The least real number between -5 and -2 will be -4.99999..

The least integer between -5 and -2 will be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We have to find the least number between -5 and -2 i.e. (-5,-2)

2) Number includes natural numbers, integers, rational and irrational numbers i.e. all the real numbers. Complex numbers are also included.

So if we consider only integers then the least number between -5 and -2 will be -4

Explanation:

• As we have to find the number between them, -5 and -2 will not be counted.
• In the number line, the numbers between -5 and -2 are -4 and -3 only.

Number line: ..., -6 , -5 , -4 , -3 , -2 , -1 ,...

• Out of -4 and -3, least number is -4. So the least number between -5 and -2 becomes -4.

But if we consider Real numbers then the least number between -5 and -2 will be -4.9999.....

So accordingly to the set of numbers we consider the answer will vary.

Therefore the least real number between -5 and -2 is -4.999... and least integer is -4.
