Answer 1

To determine the correct sign for the statement \(-815 \, \_ \, -834\), we need to compare the two numbers.

-815 is greater than -834 because when comparing negative numbers, the number closer to zero is considered to be larger.

Thus, the correct sign is:

\(-815 > -834\)

So the statement is true with the ">" sign.
