Question

Which answer lists these numbers in order from least to greatest? -24.8,142,1.13,-2.81,24.1

Answer 1

The answer is a.  -24.8, -2.81, 1.13, -2.81, 24.1

This is because the larger a negative number is, the lower its value is.  So, when putting numbers from least to greatest, you put the largest negative numbers first, and then work your way up to zero.  Then, you start counting upwards with your positive numbers.
