Question

The predecessor of ( - 249 ) is

Answer 1

Answer:

-250

Explanation

In math, the terms successor and predecessor refer to the numbers directly after or directly before a given number, respectively. but it is simply with positive integers/ numbers like

predecessor of 5 is 4

successor of 5 is 6

but with negative integers/numbers we have keep one thing in mind that that smaller number is the bigger and the bigger is the smaller

like -2 is greater than -3

or we can say

-3 is smaller than -2

so if we have to find out the predecessor with negative numbers than it will be

predecessor of -5 is -6

and the successor of -5 is -4

hope you understand

Have a great day
