what is the least integer greater than – 2 + 0.5 ?
irst , let ' s take care of the arithmetic : ( - 2 ) + ( 0.5 ) = - 1.5 on a number line , since we ' re adding + . 5 to a number , the total moves to the right ( so we ' re moving from - 2 to - 1.5 ) . next , the question asks for the least integer that is greater than - 1.5 again , we can use a number line . numbers become greater as you move to the right . the first integer to the right of - 1.5 is - 1 . final answer : b
add(0.5, negate(2))
