Question

What’s the distance between -11.5 and 1.2

Answer 1

12.7

Explanation:

Like on a number line? If so, draw it out and count.

I can't really do that for you here, but starting at -11.5, how many units do you have to move right to get to 0? 11.5, right?

Then from there, how many units do you continue to move right to get to +1.2? That's just 1.2, right?

Now add them together:

11.5 + 1.2 = 12.7
