Comparing and Ordering Integers

Compare and order integers carefully. Use the number line where it helps, and show working for calculations.

Comparing Integers

1.Write <, >, or = to make each comparison true: a) −11 −4; b) 6 −2; c) −3 0; d) −7 −7.
2.Which comparison is correct?
  • −8 > −3
  • −8 < −3
  • −8 = −3
  • −3 < −10
3.On the number line, which labelled integer is furthest to the left?
-10-8-6-4-2024
  • −2
  • −10
  • 4
  • −6
4.At dawn, the temperature in Hobart was −3°C and in Darwin it was 8°C. Which place was colder?

Ordering Integers

5.Arrange these integers from least to greatest: 5, −12, 0, −3, 9, −7.
6.List these integers from greatest to least: −6, 3, −1, 11, −9.
7.A diver is 28 metres below sea level, a seal is 9 metres below sea level, and a research boat is at sea level. Order their positions from deepest to highest.
8.Match each integer to its correct description.
  • −13
  • 0
  • −4
  • 7
  • The least integer
  • The greatest integer
  • The integer halfway between −5 and 5
  • The integer closest to −5

Integer Calculations and Comparisons

9.Work out each expression, then compare its value with zero using <, >, or =: a) (−6) + 9; b) (−8) − 3; c) 5 + (−7).
10.Decide whether each statement is true or false: a) (−9) + 2 < 0; b) (−6) + 10 ≥ 3; c) 0 > (−4) − 1.
TrueFalse
11.A bank balance is $0. After a $22 withdrawal and then a $14 deposit, what is the new balance? Is it greater than, less than, or equal to the starting balance?
