(1) c. 14

Step 1
Let us count forward from 13.
13 → 14

Step 2
The number that comes just after 13 is 14.

(2) 21

Step 1
Look at the number line given below.

20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

Step 2
Let us locate 20 and 22 on the number line:

20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

Step 3
To find the number between 20 and 22, we need to look at the immediate left of 22 and the immediate
right of 20.
↷↶
20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

We find that the number to the immediate right of 20 and to the immediate left of 22 is 21.

Step 4
21 comes between 20 and 22.

(3) d. 4322

Step 1
The successor of any number is the number next to it (or one more than the number).

Step 2
The number next to 4321 = 4321 + 1 = 4322.

(4) b. 11

Step 1
Look at the number line given below.

11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

Step 2
Let us locate 12 on the number line.

11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

Step 3
To find the number just before 12, we need to look at the immediate left of 12.

11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

We find that the number that comes just before 12 is 11.

(5) 999

Step 1
For a number to be as small as possible, all of its digits should be as small as possible. Therefore,
smallest 4 digit number should have been 0000, but since this is zero, for it to be a valid 4 digit number,
we should set the first digit to the next possible smallest number ,i.e., 1.
Therefore, the smallest 4-digit number is 1000.

Step 2
The number just before the smallest 4-digit number will be:
1000 - 1
= 999

Step 3
Thus, the number just before the smallest 4-digit number is 999 .

(6) 863

Step 1
Let us count forward 7 numbers from 856.

856
↷↷↷↷↷↷↷
857 858 859 860 861 862 863
Step 2
We see that I am 863.

(7) 3

Step 1
Look at the number line given below.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Step 2
To find the number between 2 and 4, let us locate 2 and 4 on the number line.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Step 3
To find the number between 2 and 4, we will look at the immediate right of 2 and at the immediate left of
4.
↷↶
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

We find that the number at the immediate right of 2 and to the immediate left of 4 is 3.

Step 4
Thus, 3 comes between 2 and 4.

(8) 2

Step 1
Look at the number line given below.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Step 2
Let us locate 3 on the number line.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Step 3
To find the number just before 3, we need to look at the immediate left of 3.
↶
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

We find that the number at the immediate right of 3 is 2.

Step 4
Thus, 2 comes just after 3.

(9) 8

Step 1
Let us count from 7 to 9.
7 → 8 → 9

Step 2
The number that comes between 7 and 9 is 8.

(10) 4646

Step 1
Predecessor of a number means the number that comes right before it.

Step 2
To find the predecessor of 4647, subtract 1 from it.
4647 − 1 = 4646

Step 3
So, 4646 is the predecessor of 4647.
