Integers are zero, whole numbers, and their negatives. Integers on a number line include. -4. -3. -2. -1. 0. 1. 2. 3. 4 These are all integers including & between -4 and 4
If u look at -3 in this list, it’s 3 units away From zero, so -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 The problem says closer than -3 so we can’t include -3 or 3...that leaves -2 -1 0 1 2... five integers
