The task is to identify the predecessor and successor of the number 9899 in a sequence of natural numbers.
Step 1: Determine the Predecessor
To find the predecessor of 9899, calculate:
Therefore, the predecessor is 9898.
Step 2: Determine the Successor
To find the successor of 9899, calculate:
Therefore, the successor is 9900.
After determining the predecessor and successor, we find:
The correct choice based on the calculations provided is:
Therefore, the sequence is complete as: 9898, 9899, 9900.
Which number succeeds the number 9209?
The predecessor comes before a number (subtract 1), and the successor comes after a number (add 1). Think of it like counting: 9898 → 9899 → 9900.
In consecutive number sequences, each number is exactly 1 more than the previous number. This follows the natural counting pattern we use every day!
Think of the alphabet: P comes before S, so Predecessor comes before the given number, and Successor comes after it.
No problem! When 9899 becomes 9900, the hundreds place increases and the ones place becomes 0. This is normal in our number system.
Yes! This works for all whole numbers. Just subtract 1 for the predecessor and add 1 for the successor, no matter how big or small the number is.
