Question

Write the successor and predecessor of each of the following:(I) 5(ii)-3 (iii)-100(iv0)

Answer 1

i) Successor of 5 = 6
Predecessor of 5 = 4

ii ) Successor of -3 = -4
Predecessor of -3 = -2

iii ) Successor of -100 = -101
Predecessor of -100 = -99
iv ) Successor of 0 = -1
Predecessor of 0 = 1

Answer 2

The successor of 5 is 5+1= 6
The predecessor of 5 is 5-1= 4
the successor of -3+1= -2
the predecessor of -3= -3-1= -4
the successor of -100 = -100+1= -99
the predecessor of -100= -100-1= -101
the successor of 0= 0+1=1
the predecessor of 0= 0-1= -1
