Last Monday the temperature was -10 degrees. This Monday the temperature is -8 degrees. How do those two numbers compare? Explain what this means in relation to the positions of these numbers on the number line. For which Monday did you have the highest temperature?

The temperature for this Monday is actually warmer than the temperature of last Monday. If you look at a number line, you will find that -8 is closer to 0 than -10. The highest temperature was this Monday. Hope this helps! :)
