Question

Arrange in descending order: 1, 11, 111, -1, -11, -111, 0

• A. -111, -11, -1, 0, 1, 11, 111
• B. 111, 11, 1, 0, -1, -11, -111
• C. -111, 11, -1, 0, 1, -11, 111
• D. 0, 1, 11, 111, -1, -11, -111

Answer 1

The correct option is B 111, 11, 1, 0, -1, -11, -111

$\because$ Moving from right to left on the number line the value of value integers decreases as shown below.$\therefore$ 111 > 11 > 1 > 0 > -1 > -11 > -111

Descending order is arranging the numbers from big to small. So, arranging the given numbers in descending order is: 111, 11, 1, 0, 1, -11, -111.
