Which of the following sets of Dewey Decimal call numbers is in the correct order?





A. 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU, 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA

B. 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA, 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU

C. 100.1 BLU, 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA, 100.01 PRO

D. 004.15 KWA, 010.1 ABR, 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU

To determine which set of Dewey Decimal call numbers is in the correct order, you need to understand the Dewey Decimal Classification System. The Dewey Decimal Classification System is a system used to organize books and other library materials based on subject classification.

Each Dewey Decimal call number consists of three parts: a class number, a decimal point, and a cutter number. The class number represents the subject of the material, the decimal point indicates the subdivision within that subject, and the cutter number is used to organize materials by author or title within the subject.

In the given options, let's examine each set of call numbers and determine their correct order:

A. 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU, 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA
B. 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA, 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU
C. 100.1 BLU, 010.1 ABR, 004.15 KWA, 100.01 PRO
D. 004.15 KWA, 010.1 ABR, 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU

To determine the correct order, we should compare the class numbers part of the call numbers first:

A. 100.01, 100.1, 010.1, 004.15
B. 010.1, 004.15, 100.01, 100.1
C. 100.1, 010.1, 004.15, 100.01
D. 004.15, 010.1, 100.01, 100.1

Looking at the class numbers, we can see that in the Dewey Decimal Classification System, numbers are read in ascending order. Therefore, the correct order would be:

D. 004.15 KWA, 010.1 ABR, 100.01 PRO, 100.1 BLU

So, option D is the set of Dewey Decimal call numbers in the correct order.
