Activity 3 Comparing Integers
The table shows the lowest Temperature of City
temperature of cities A, B, and
C during winter. Locate each City A B C
temperature on a number line. 1
Which temperature is farthest The Lowest 4 2
to the right? Temperature ØF
5 4 3 2 10 1 2 3 4 5
On a number line, integers on the right side are larger than those on the left
side.

1 . Write the numbers in order starting from the smallest.
a. 3, 4, 1 b. 4, 1, 0, 4
30 0
c. 3, 5, 0, 5 d. 1, 0, 2 , 3
First find the absolute
