Jim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to state which of the two opinions are correct.

Let us examine Mikela's claim

He said the sum of two any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers

Let us pick -1 and 30

adding both gives 29, which refutes this claim

For Jim, we need to understand what natural numbers are

By definition, natural numbers are positive whole numbers

What this means is that the set of numbers which is considered by Jim is limited

So let us take two natural numbers, 3 and 5

Adding both gives 8 which is greater than 5

We must note that at any point in time, for any two natural numbers, the sum of both is always greater than the bigger of both
