Ordering numbers is arranging the numbers in a particular order to make comparison easier.
Example: 11, 2, 5, 8, 9, 11, 6, 44, 6 are the numbers in a given list.
Ordering the list from smallest to highest: 2, 5, 6, 6, 8, 9, 11, 11, 44.
From the list, how many are greater than 8?
Answer: 4 are greater than 8 (9, 11, 11, 44).
When the numbers are ordered it makes comparison easier.

You do not, but it is easier.
Rational numbers are roots, decimals, fractions, and whole numbers. Bascially anything that can become a decimal. Irrational numbers are like pi. I'm pretty sure to be irrational, they have to repeat. Anyway, ordering them and comparing them means looking at them and seeing which is smallest and largest. Then you order them (smallest to largest or whatever it says).
Convert them all to their decimal equivalents (by dividing each numerator by its denominator), then you can easily see which numbers are greater than others.
You tell whats the same and different.
