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
Hence
