What is the distance between −8

and 16 on a number line

The distance between -8 and 16 on a number line is 24.

To find the distance between two points on a number line, you simply subtract the smaller value from the larger value. In this case, the smaller value is -8 and the larger value is 16.

Distance = 16 - (-8)
Distance = 16 + 8
Distance = 24

So, the distance between -8 and 16 on a number line is 24 units.
