Question

Is the numbers -30 to -39 and -46 going up or down

Answer 1

The numbers are going down

Here, we want to state the direction the number is going

From what we have with negative numbers, the bigger in value the negative number is, the lesser its value

What we mean in this case is that -39 is less than -30; while -46 is less than -39

What this mean is that we notice a downward pattern in value

Hence, the numbers are going down
