Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 4 units

The distance between the two numbers is |(-2)-(-6)|=|-2+6|=4 units. On the number line, one moves 4 steps to the right from -6 to -2. Distance is always positive, so -4 is not correct. Exam tip: Find the distance between two numbers by taking the absolute value of their difference.
