Answer:

10 of course!

Explanation:

we know that numbers smaller than zero have the minus sign beside them,you just count from 3 down to 0(doesn't count)

and then -1 till -7,you add 7 to 3 and you get 10 !,nothing easier

Answer:

10.

Explanation:

To find the distance between two numbers, subtract the two numbers. The absolute value of the difference is the distance.


(-7)-3=(-10).

The absolute value of -10 is 10.

Therefore, distance between -7 and 3 is 10.
