Place the following set of numbers in ascending order.
25, -13, 8, -2, 13, 3, 18
The answers are either.
(A) -13, -2, 3, 13, 8, 3, 18
(B) 25, 18, 13, 8, 3, -2, -13
(C) -13, 3, -2, 8, 13, 18, 25
(C) -13, -2, 3, 8, 13, 18, 25
I think the answer could be (D) would this be the correct answer or (A).
I need the answer by tonight. Thank you.

D looks correct to me. (A is missing the highest number.)
Thank you so much. That was a very big help. I thought D was the answer but, I wasn't sure. Again I do thank you and have a good and blessed night.

To put the set of numbers in ascending order, you need to arrange them from smallest to largest. Let's go through the given numbers step by step.
The numbers are: 25, -13, 8, -2, 13, 3, 18
Starting with the smallest number, we have:
-13
Next, we have:
-2
After that:
3
Then:
8
Continuing:
13
And finally:
18
Now, let's compare the arranged numbers with the given options.
(A) -13, -2, 3, 13, 8, 3, 18 - This option has repeating numbers (3) and is not in ascending order.
(B) 25, 18, 13, 8, 3, -2, -13 - This option has the largest number (25) at the beginning and is not in ascending order.
(C) -13, 3, -2, 8, 13, 18, 25 - This option is in ascending order and matches the arrangement we derived.
(D) -13, -2, 3, 8, 13, 18, 25 - This option has the repeating numbers (-13, -2, 3), and is not in ascending order.
Therefore, the correct answer is (C) -13, 3, -2, 8, 13, 18, 25.
