Detailed Solution

We have to determine whether – 26 is greater than – 25 or not.
When we move from right to left, the number decreases and from left to right, the number increases.
By marking points at equal distances, draw a number line.
Mark -26 on moving 26 points on the left from zero and the same for -25.
Question ImageSince we know the number increases on moving left to right and -25 lies on the right side of -26. Thus, -25 is greater than -26.
Hence, -25 is greater than -26, so, option 2 is correct.
