      Predecessor and Successor

      Predecessor

      Method 1- Number that comes before a particular number

      Method 2-The predecessor of a number is one less than the given number.

      Example:  Find predecessor of 13,067

      According to method 1

      A number before 13,067 is 13,066. Therefore 13,066 is the predecessor of 13,067

      According to method 2

      We can say a number less than 13,067 i.e. 13,067-1 =13,066; 13,066 is the predecessor of 13,067




      Successor

      Method 1- Number that comes after a particular number

      Method 2-The successor of a number is one more than the given number.

      Example:  Find successor of 13,067

      According to method 1

      A number after 13,067 is 13,068. Therefore 13,068 is the successor of 13,067

      According to method 2

      We can say a number more than 13,067 i.e. 13,067+1 =13,068; 13,068 is the successor of 13,067
