Tommy Nguyen · Answer 1

5. - 5 > - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive numbers are greater than negative ones. Also think of the numbers on a mercury thermometer : - - 5 his greater (and warmer!) than - 18.

Emma Berg · Answer 2

A negative number is always less than a positive number.

When comparing two negative numbers, the smaller negative number is the greater value.

The answer would be 5. - 5 > - 18
