Answer:

It's larger than the number to its left.

Explanation:

Given :You're given two different numbers on a number line

To Find : what can you say for certain about the number that's farther to the right?

Solution:

Number line : A number line contains positive and negative numbers in increasing order from left to right

We are given that the number is farthest to right

So, It is far from the right .

So, the number will be less than the numbers on the right by the definition of number line.

And Also the number must be greater than the number to its left by the definition of number line.

So, option C is true .

Hence It's larger than the number to its left.
