Answer:

7 units

Explanation:

(number line:)

<- -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 ->

there are 7 units from 1 to -6 (you don't count the 0)

(I'm not sure if you understood my explanation, but I do am sure about the answer, so if there is something you didn't understand let me know, and which part are you confused about so I can help you out!)

Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf 7\ units}

Explanation:

To find that how much far they are from each other, we can subtract both of them.

=> 1 - (-6)

=> 1 + 6

=> 7 units

So, they are 7 units apart from each other.
