Answer: (5) -5 > -18​

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The farther the negative number is from 0, the smaller it becomes.
  • Negative numbers will be smaller than positive numbers, since they're smaller than 0.

-5 is 5 away from zero, making it larger than -18 since it's closer to 0, while -18 is 18 away from zero.
