Question


The difference between the predecessor and the successor of 1 million is ____.


Options:
A .   1
B .   99999
C .   2
D .   100001
Answer: Option C
:
C

1 million = 1,000,000


The successor of a number is one more than that number and the predecessor of a number is one less than that number.


The successor of 1,000,000 = 1000000 + 1 = 1000001
The predecessor of 1,000,000 = 1000000 - 1 = 999999


The difference between the successor and the predecessor of 1,000,000 = 1000001 - 999999 = 2.
In fact the difference between the successor and predecessor of any number will always be 2 !! Try it yourself
