6th Grade students learn about opposite numbers. Following that they need to learn how to plot the opposite numbers on a number line which is an essential skill. Teachers can use “Identify opposites on a number line practice problems” to prepare their students for the exams.
By solving these practice problems, students can develop a better understanding of opposite numbers. 

 

To solve these problems, they should remember that on a number line, the opposite numbers are the same distance from 0, but on the other side. For example, if the given number is 3 then its opposite number is -3, and if the given number is -6 then its opposite number is 6.
