Question
Arrange the following integers in ascending order.
−100, 10, −1000, 100, 0, −1, 1000, 1, −10
Solution
−100, 10, −1000, 100, 0, −1, 1000, 1, −10
- Separating positive integers 10, 100, 1000, 1 and negative integers −100, −1000, −1, −10.
- Now the positive integers in ascending order 1, 10, 100, 1000 and the negative integers in ascending order −1000, −100, −10, −1
- Also ‘0’ stand in the middle as it is neither positive nor negative.
- ∴ The numbers in ascending order: −1000, −100, −10, −1, 0, 1, 10, 100, 1000.
