Answer;
1.6
Explanation
What we shall do here is to calculate the distance between the two points on the number line
Mathematically, that would be ;
-2.8 -(-7.2) = -2.8 + 7.2 = 4.4
This means that -7.2 is 4.4 units away from -2.8
So to find other number which is this same distance;
we have -2.8 + 4.4 = 1.6
