 Nope, here you are going "from right to left" (on the real line).
 You see, 1/1 is larger than, say, 1/2, hence on "the real line" 1/1 is RIGHT from 1/2. No?

Huh? WM is backwards?

 Actually, not. :-)
 

Actually, my real line is, say
...-1...0...+1...
So, left to right with origin at zero, all the positive numbers, sya the granularity or density is the natural numbers, starting at zero the origin of the real line:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...
0 is at origin point on my real line, the x axis so to speak. It has an origin at 0. Fair enough?
Left of zero, or origin if you will, is negative, right of zero is positive...
See?
