Will the opposite of a number always, sometimes, or never be greater than the number itself?

Sometimes because the answer be be a positive, and the opposite would be a negative which is less. But for a negative, it is always greater. So the answer is sometimes will be greater than the number itself.

Sometimes (i believe)

ex: oppotite of 2 is -2, it's not greater than 2

but if the original number is -2, the opposite is 2, which IS greater

so it depends

The answer would be 10.
