A number line is a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals. It helps visualize the relative position of numbers such as positive and negative integers. The middle point represents zero with positive numbers extending to the right and negative numbers extending to the left of zero.
In Class 6 Maths Chapter 10 “The Other Side of Zero” students explore the concept of integers. The chapter introduces the idea of numbers greater than zero as positive and numbers less than zero as negative. It helps in understanding the number line along with operations like addition and subtraction of integers.
-10 is the farthest to the left because on a number line, numbers with lower (more negative) values are positioned further to the left. Since:
-10 < -5 < 0 < 10
-10 is the smallest number and thus appears furthest left.
