A integer tells us exactly how many whole units we will move away from 0 along the number line.
Practice makes perfect
To graph the given numbers on a number line, let's first consider their form.
{ 0, 1, 3}
In this case, we are given three integers. An integer tells us exactly how many whole units we will move away from 0 along the number line. Because of this, we can mark the first integer at 0. Let's consider the second number. Since we have a positive number, we will move to the right 1 whole unit.
The remaining integer is a negative number. This means we move away the according number of whole units to the left from 0.
