Question

From the menu card, help Alex choose the item which is least priced. Also, arrange the prices in ascending order.

Answer 1

Starting to compare the digits from the left hand side, we can say that the chicken sandwich is the least priced, that is ₹100. Next we have to arrange the prices in ascending order for that we have to compare the digits at the hundreds place
199, 150, 120, 180, 100 and 125 have 1 at the hundred’s place.

So now we have to compare the digits at ten’s place.Among 9,5,2, 8 and 0, 0 is the smallest digit. Hence 100 comes first.

Now comparing 9, 5, 2 and 8, 120 and 125 are the next numbers with 120 being smaller than 125.
Next 5 is smaller than 8 and 9, so 150 < 180 < 199 and 299 comes last. Hence the ascending order is as follows:

• 100 < 120 < 125 < 150 < 180 < 199 < 299
