• C. 37, 48, 41, 51, 53
• D. 37, 48, 41, 53, 51

Answer 1

The correct option is B 37, 41, 48, 51, 53

As per the question we have to arrange the numbers in ascending order or increasing order.

37,48,41,53,51

Now, to arrange them in increasing order we first compare the digits at the tens place.

5 > 4 > 3

So, 51, 53 > 41, 48 > 37

Now we compare the digits at the units place.

3 > 1 and 8 > 1.

Therefore, 53 > 51 > 48 > 41 > 37 .

The numbers in ascending order are 37, 41, 48, 51, 53.
