B 114<−224, because 114 is located to the right of −224 on the number line.

C −224<−134, because −134 is located to the right of −224 on the number line.

D 114>−224, because 114 is located to the right of −224 on the number line.

Respuesta :

Option B ) 114 < -224, because 114 is located to the right of -224 on the number line is incorrect option.

In a number line as shown in a figure below right side of the zero lies positive numbers and left side of the zeroes lies negative numbers. And numbers that lie on the right side are greater in comparison of the numbers that lie on the left of that number.

As we look into the options we see that,

Option A ) is correct as 114 is on the right side and -134 is on the left side. Therefore 114 > -134.

Option C) is correct as -134 is to the right of -224  on the number line . And numbers that lie on the right are greater than the numbers that are on the left.

Option D) is correct as 114 is on the right side and -224 on the left side on the number line. Therefore, 114 > -224.

Hence Option B) is incorrect -224 is on the left side of the number line and 114 on the right side and the number that are on the right side are greater than the numbers on the left . Hence 114 is not smaller than -224, that is, 114 > -224.
