So i would ask this friend to draw a number line and label 6.2 on the number line. Then i would ask her if she knew what the opposite number of 6.2 is. Yes- The number line will always continue, its indefinite. This means it can go forward or backwards. Make sure that your friend wrote 0. You always need a starting point. Then tell her to draw the tally marks forward the same way she did backwards. Locate the 6.2 and make all of the numbers negative.
The bigger triangle is 2 times larger than the smaller triangle meaning all of the value of the smaller triangle are 2 times smaller than the bigger triangle and the bigger triangle is 2 times larger than the smaller triangle
