To solve this problem of identifying the predecessor and successor of the given number , follow these steps:
Consequently, the predecessor is and the successor is . Hence, the correct sequence is .
Therefore, the correct choice from the given options is Choice 2: .
What number follows 70,099?
The predecessor comes before a number (subtract 1), while the successor comes after a number (add 1). Think of it like counting: 47989 → 47990 → 47991.
Because predecessor means the number that comes immediately before. When you subtract 1 from 47990, you get 47989, not 46990. Always subtract exactly 1!
Yes! Every whole number has a predecessor (number - 1) and successor (number + 1). This works for small numbers like 5 and large numbers like 999,999.
No problem! When subtracting 1 from numbers ending in 0, you borrow from the next place value. For example: .
Make sure each number is exactly 1 more than the previous number. Count: first number + 1 = middle number, middle number + 1 = last number ✓
