Using the number line, write the integer which is
(i) 4 more than 6
(ii) 5 more than $ -6 $
(iii) 6 less than 2
(iv) 2 less than $ -3 $


Given :

The given terms are 

(i) 4 more than 6
(ii) 5 more than \( -6 \)
(iii) 6 less than 2
(iv) 2 less than \( -3 \)

To do :

We have to write the numbers using the number line.

Solution :

(a) 4 more than 6

Step 1: First mark 6.

Step 2: Move 4 steps to the right.


So, 4 more than 6 is 10.

(b) 5 more than $-6$

Step 1: First mark $-6$.

Step 2: Move 5 steps to the right.


So, 5 more than $-6$ is $-1$.

(c) 6 less than 2

Step 1: First mark 2.

Step 2: Move 6 steps to the left.


So, 6 less than 2 is $-4$.

(d) 2 less than $-3$

Step 1: First mark $-3$.

Step 2: Move 2 steps to the left.


So, 2 less than $-3$ is $-5$.
