Determine the distance between -1826 and -2.45 on the number line.
To find the distance between -1826 and -2.45 on the number line, we subtract the smaller number from the larger number while considering the direction. In this case, -2.45 is greater than -1826.
|-2.45 - (-1826)| = |-2.45 + 1826|
Now, calculating the sum:
|-2.45 + 1826| = |-0.45 + 1824|
Next, simplifying:
|-0.45 + 1824| = |1823.55|
The distance between -1826 and -2.45 is 1823.55.
To determine the distance between two numbers on a number line, we find the absolute value of the difference between the two numbers.
The distance between -1826 and -2.45 can be calculated as follows:
|-1826 - (-2.45)|
|-1826 + 2.45|
|-1823.55|
The distance between -1826 and -2.45 is 1823.55 units.
