Given:
Number are 0.7, -4.5, 0.3, -0.5, 2.3.
To find:
The ascending order of given numbers.
Solution:
The larger negative number has smaller value. On comparing the values before the decimal, we get -4.5 is larger negative number than -0.5.
So, -4.5 < -0.5.
The larger positive number has greater value. On comparing the values before the decimal and after decimal, we get
0.3 < 0.7 < 2.3
We know that negative numbers are smaller than positive numbers.
-4.5 < -0.5 < 0.3 < 0.7 < 2.3
Therefore, the required order of given numbers from least to greatest is -4.5, -0.5, 0.3, 0.7, 2.3.
