Order each set of integers from greatest to least
13.8,43,-25,12,-14,3
43,12,8,3,-14,-43
14.-8,32,55,-32,-19,-3
55,32,-3,-8,-19,-32
15.-100,-89,-124,-69,-52
-52,-69,-89,-100,-124
16.,6,17,-20,15,-19,26
26,17,15,6,-19,-20
Right
To order a set of integers from greatest to least, follow these steps:
1. Write down all the numbers in the set.
2. Compare each number to the others in the set.
3. Identify the highest number in the set.
4. Write down the highest number as the first number in the new ordered set.
5. Repeat steps 2-4 for the remaining numbers, until all numbers have been ordered.
Now, let's apply these steps to each set of integers you provided:
1. Set: 13.8, 43, -25, 12, -14, 3
Comparing the numbers:
The highest number in this set is 43.
Next highest number is 13.8.
Next highest number is 12.
Next highest number is 3.
Next highest number is -14.
And finally, the lowest number is -25.
The ordered set from greatest to least is: 43, 13.8, 12, 3, -14, -25.
2. Set: 43, 12, 8, 3, -14, -43
Comparing the numbers:
The highest number in this set is 43.
Next highest number is 12.
Next highest number is 8.
Next highest number is 3.
Next highest number is -14.
And finally, the lowest number is -43.
The ordered set from greatest to least is: 43, 12, 8, 3, -14, -43.
3. Set: -8, 32, 55, -32, -19, -3
Comparing the numbers:
The highest number in this set is 55.
Next highest number is 32.
Next highest number is -3.
Next highest number is -8.
Next highest number is -19.
And finally, the lowest number is -32.
The ordered set from greatest to least is: 55, 32, -3, -8, -19, -32.
4. Set: 6, 17, -20, 15, -19, 26
Comparing the numbers:
The highest number in this set is 26.
Next highest number is 17.
Next highest number is 15.
Next highest number is 6.
Next highest number is -19.
And finally, the lowest number is -20.
The ordered set from greatest to least is: 26, 17, 15, 6, -19, -20.
