(i) -8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3
(ii) -3
(iii) -8

Question 6.
Write four consecutive integers just greater than -9.
Solution:
The four consecutive integers just than -9 are:
First consecutive = -9 + 1 = -8
Second consecutive = -8 + 1 = -7
Third consecutive = -7 + 1 = -6
Fourth consecutive = -6 + 1 = -5
These are = -8, -7, -6, -5

Question 7.
Write four consecutive integers just before -2.
Solution:
The four consecutive integers just before -2 are:
First consecutive = -2 – 1 = -3
Second consecutive = -3 – 1 = -4
Third consecutive = -4 – 1 = -5
Fourth consecutive = -5 – 1 = -6
∴ These are = -6, -5, -4, -3
