Question

write the predecessor and successor of the following 10000​

Answer 1

Answer:

predecessor is 9999 and successor is 10001

Answer 2

Predecessors of any given number can be simply calculated by subtracting 1 from the given number. So, the predecessor of any number a is given by (a−1). So, the predecessor of 10000 is (10000−1)=9999 i.e., the predecessor of 10000 is 9999 .and successor of any given number can be simply calculated by adding 1 from the given number.So the successor of any number a is given by (a+1).So the successor of 10000 is(10000+1)=10001 i.e.,the successor of 10000 is 10001.

The term successor and predecessor in Maths means that they come directly after or before the particular number respectively. Both successor and predecessor basically applied only to the whole numbers. The successor is termed as after numbers whereas the predecessor is termed as before numbers.
