Math 2017 Question 1
Question 1
Arrange these numbers in ASCENDING order (smallest first).
8372 8273 8237 8327
Answer
8237 8273 8327 8372
Explanation
First of all make sure and note the word ASCENDING, that means the smallest number to the largest.
To find the smallest number look at the thousands first. They are all eight so look at the hundreds for the smallest number (2) that is 8273 and 8237
Look at the smallest tens (3) 8237
Followed by 8273
The last two numbers are 8327 and 8372 They have the same hundreds (3) so look for the smallest tens which is 8327
That leaves 8372 is the largest number.
