To order numbers, starting with the highest place value column (used anywhere on the numbers) compare the digits, moving right a place value column until either all digits have been considered (and if they are all the same then the numbers are equal) or one digit is higher than the other (meaning the number containing that digit is greater than the other). If a place value column is empty (in a number), its digit value is 0.
With negative numbers the ordering is reversed; that is the negative number with the higher absolute value is the lower number. eg consider -10 and -15:
the absolute value of -10 is 10,
the absolute value of -15 is 15,
15 is greater than 10, therefore -15 is less than -10.
But all negative numbers are less than 0.
So when there is a mixture of positive and negative numbers, order each separately and then all the negative numbers are less than all the positive numbers.
Example what is 0.5, 10, -4, -2 in order from least to greatest?
Answer: -4, -2, 0.5, 10
From greatest to least the order would be: 10, 0.5, -2, -4.

How do you find median numbers in math?
U put Ur numbers in order from least to greatest. then go from left to right and cross them out. Once u get to the middle number = median
What math term is a list of numbers in specific order?

How do you getthe median in math?
Put the numbers in order from least to greatest. mark the lowest number, then the highest, then the second lowest , then second highest, then move inward crossing off the numbers, until you reach the center number.

How do you know where to put parentheses in a math problem?
The normal order of evaluating operations is PEMDAS = Paretheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction. If any of these operations is to be carried out in a different order, you put parentheses around the operator and the numbers on either side of it.

Do real number contains all integers rational numbers irrational numbers natural numbers whole numbers?
Yes. Anything that can be put on the number line is real. You will learn about imaginary and complex numbers in advanced math. They are included in complex numbers but again that is very advanced math.
